I was just thinking about making pizzelle, getting ready for Easter. My mother-in-law has the best recepie for vanilla pizzelle, but I will try the chocolate version you have here, thanks for a great idea. Just curious if I can use oil instead of butter? Mother-in-law says it makes the pizzelle too crispy. HI Debbie, There are pizzelle recipes that call for oil instead of butter, but whether you will like the texture is definitely bakers choice. Why not try a half batch each way, one butter, one oil, and see which one you like better? Have fun! ~ MaryJane
