Firstly, a pizzelle is not a cookie. At least according to my wife, who is of Italian heritage. It's more like a waffle, and a pizzelle maker actually looks very like a waffle maker.
Secondly, they're not liquorice flavoured, they're anisette flavoured. You use anisette when making them. Anise may smell similar to liquorice, but actually is not the same thing.
They do taste nice though, especially when you put a scoop of vanilla ice cream between two warm ones. :)
