Crispy, creamy and oh so captivating, these Trubochki* will have you looking for excuses to make them. Come along as Angela McEllin teaches you all about this delicious melding of eastern and western European delicacies. You’ll start by making pizzelle batters in a selection of flavors (pictured are chocolate, pistachio, raspberry and classic anise, but you can choose whatever flavors strike your fancy.) While the batters rest, we’ll create our fillings**- again, the sky (and Angela’s extensive flavor and liquor collection) and your imagination are the only limits! Once the batter is rested, we’ll begin baking and shaping the pizzelles; and, once they are cool, we’ll coat the Trubochki with chocolate to prevent soggy bottoms (this step is optional, but highly recommended if you want to have them pre-filled for an event- plus, who doesn’t love chocolate?) Finally, we’ll fill and decorate the Trubochki. Best of all, you’ll be able to enjoy Angela’s Trubochki so you can bring home all of your beauties to share with friends and family (or not, we won’t judge!)
*This version of Trubochki are pizzelle wafer cookies rolled and filled with a selection of creamy fillings.
**Two types of fillings will be made (one cream based and one mascarpone based), and you can divide each for different flavor combinations.
