Cream Filled Pizzelles, also known as Trubochki, are delicate rolled wafer cookies with a crisp texture and a sweet whipped cream filling. Made using a pizzelle iron, these elegant pastries combine a light crunchy shell with a smooth creamy center, making them perfect for holidays, celebrations, or special dessert platters.

Ingredients

  • For the Wafer Cookies
  • 3 eggs

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup cornstarch

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For the Cream Filling

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Garnish

  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until light and slightly thickened.

  • Add the melted butter and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.

  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and stir until a smooth batter forms.

  • Preheat a pizzelle iron or thin waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

  • Place a small spoonful of batter onto the heated iron and cook until the wafer becomes lightly golden.

  • Carefully remove the hot wafer and immediately roll it around a wooden dowel or cylindrical mold to form a tube. Hold briefly until it sets.

  • Repeat with the remaining batter and allow all wafer tubes to cool completely.

  • In a bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.

  • Transfer the whipped cream to a piping bag and pipe the filling into both ends of each tube.

  • Lightly dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

Work quickly when shaping the wafers since they harden within seconds after leaving the iron.A wooden spoon handle or metal piping tip can be used as a mold for rolling the tubes.For longer storage, keep the wafer shells unfilled and add cream shortly before serving.Dip the ends in melted chocolate and sprinkle with chopped nuts for decoration.
