Method
 

Baking Instructions
  1. Preheat your pizzelle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions, reaching medium-high heat.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, granulated sugar, and fine salt until light and fluffy for about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Stir in grapeseed oil and vanilla extract, then mix in sifted all-purpose flour until just combined.
  4. Spoon 1 tablespoon of batter onto the preheated pizzelle maker and bake for 18-20 seconds until golden brown.
  5. Remove the pizzelle with a fork and immediately roll it around a wooden stick to form a tube shape.
  6. Allow the rolled pizzelles to cool on a baking sheet for 4-5 hours.
  7. In a clean bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth, gradually adding sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract, then fold in cool whip.
  8. Fill each cooled pizzelle tube with the cream mixture using a piping bag or spoon and dust with powdered sugar if desired.
  9. Refrigerate filled pizzelles until ready to serve, ideally just before serving to maintain crispiness.

Notes

For best results, ensure pizzelles are baked until just dark golden to achieve a crispy exterior. Cool in a single layer to prevent moisture buildup.
