Painted pizzelles are almost therapeutic to make. Choose a chocolaty porter as a melting agent for chocolate buttons and you will create a sauce you can paint with (yes paint) or drizzle over pizzelle.

Instructions
Heat the beer in a small sauce pan until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat.
In a small bowl place the chocolate buttons and pour the warmed beer over them. Stir gently until all the chocolate has melted and you have a thick and smooth sauce.
Let the chocolate mixture cool off to room temperature.
Use about 1 teaspoon of sauce to glue together two pizzelles, forming a 'sandwich'.
Arrange all the pizzelle sandwiches over a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
Use the remaining sauce to drizzle over the pizzelle or if you are in a creative/crafty mood, grab a thin paintbrush, dip it into the sauce and decorate the pretty shapes on the pizzelle.
