Five-Spice Cones

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup confectioners sugar
• 1 1/4 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus additional for buttering pizzelle maker
• an electric pizzelle maker; a 5 1/2-inch cone-shaped pizzelle mold

Instructions

1. 1

   Whisk together all ingredients except additional butter in a bowl until smooth. Chill batter, covered, 1 hour.

2. 2

   Heat pizzelle maker and lightly brush top and bottom of pizzelle molds with butter. Pour 1 tablespoon batter into bottom of each pizzelle mold. Close cover and cook batter until golden, about 2 minutes.

3. 3

   Working quickly (pizzelle are pliable only while hot), peel off 1 pizzelle and wrap around cone mold, overlapping ends, and pinching tip closed. Hold cone in place until it hardens, about 5 seconds, then slip off mold and repeat with remaining pizzelle. Make more pizzelle and cones in same manner.
