In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the flour, cocoa, salt and baking powder.
In a large mixing bowl vigorously whisk together the eggs and sugar until blended. Add the vanilla and melted butter and whisk until combined.
Sift the dry ingredients into the butter and egg mixture and fold together with a spatula. This batter will be thick.
Heat your pizzelle iron until a drop of water sizzles on the cooking surface. Lightly coat the hot iron with nonstick cooking spray. Scoop the batter into a pipping bag fit with a large tip (or cut the corner from a ziplock bag) I used a large Wilton 2A tip.
Pipe about 1 tablespoon batter into the center of the iron and cook according to your manufacturer directions. If they are too big for your press, pipe a little less the next time. It will take a few tries to get them just right.
Remove the hot pizzelles to a wire rack to cool.
Melt the white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave on 50% power for 1 minute. Stir and repeat as needed until the chips are melted. Dip or drizzle the cookies as desired then sprinkle with your favorite toppings.
Notes
TIPS: The white chocolate hardens quickly so have all your toppings ready to go before starting.
Optional: Sprinkle with powdered sugar or fill with your favorite ice cream and freeze until set.
Store cookies in an airtight container. Plain cookies can be frozen well sealed for a month.
