Late February is the perfect time to pick up cheap heart shaped biscuit cutters (after Valentines day). These can be used for novelty shaped biscuits (see photo), or even to use use with salt dough to make hanging decorations. I made some pink coloured salt dough hearts using: 1 cup of salt, 1 cup of flour and half a cup of water and a dash of food colouring (or you could always paint them or cover them in glitter when dry). Just mix it all together in a bowl, roll out and cut the shapes and then pop in the microwave for a couple of minutes or leave to dry by a fire. I put holes in mine so I could thread them with ribbon.
the cookies look looooooooovely
