TIPS -
Make them LOVE -LY - I have been using this recipe for bridal showers for several years. I form it into a heart shape as follows: As I place each slice on the cookie sheet, I use a teaspoon handle to push the center into a point and shape it by pinching it between thumb and finger. The 2 round parts become the top curves of the heart. Everyone is really impressed by the appearance and flavor!
Cut them easier -*Suggestion for the person who said they are difficult to cut: After you've rolled them up refrigerate them for about 20 minutes, they should be a little easier to cut. Bon Appetit!
