Notes
You will need large baking trays for this recipe as it makes so many cookies. The amount of cookies will vary of course depending on the size of your cookies - the heart shaped cookie cutter I used was 5cm wide x 6cm high which gave me 65.(!)
I put two baking trays in the oven at the same time - you may need to rotate the trays during the cooking time (I didn't need to though.)
You can put them pretty close together as they only spread a little bit in the oven.
