- A very useful tip for rolling out your dough is to place the dough on a sheet of cling film and place another sheet of cling film on top to avoid sticking!
- Roll out the dough using a rolling pin until 1/4 inch thick (don't worry the dough feels crumbly but holds well!)
- Cut out your shapes using cookie cutters and place onto a baking tray
- Place into a preheated oven at 180 degrees celcius for 10 minutes
- Leave to cool fully before icing them!
