ingredients

* 150g butter, room temp

* 75g caster sugar

* 225g plain flour

to Decorate

* icing sugar

* edible glitter

* sugar roses

1. Dice the butter into a big bowl. Tip in the flour, sugar and a pinch of salt. Gently rub in the butter with your fingertips and bring the dough together into a ball. Wrap in cling film and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes.

2. Preheat the oven to 170c/gas 4.

3. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and roll to about 1/2cm thick. Cut out heart shapes with a biscuit cutter and lay on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 15-25 minutes until light golden. Leave to cool on a rack.

4. To decorate the biscuits, mix together few tablespoons of icing sugar with enough water to make a paste. Spread the icing onto the biscuits, or drizzle over in lattice patterns. You can then dip the biscuits into edible glitter, or use a little icing to glue on sugar roses. Leave to set before eating.
