To Decorate

Recipe Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas4. Lightly grease a flat baking tray.
  2. Put the flour and sugar into a bowl. Add the butter and rub into the dry Ingredients, continue until mixture forms a dough.
  3. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and gently knead. Next roll out to 5mm / 1/4″ thickness. Cut into 8cm / 3″ rounds or heart shapes; this will make about 12. Place on the prepared tin and bake for about 10 to 15 minutes until a pale brown colour. Keep an eye on them as they burn very easily!
