Number of players:
1+

Activity:

Mix half a cup of sugar with 8 drops of red food colouring. Add more or less colouring to achieve your desired shade.

Make up your favourite biscuit recipe as usual but do not bake the dough.

Take a small ball of biscuit dough and roll it into a 10cm long strand.

Repeat this to create at least twenty pairs of strands.

Lie each pair of strands on a baking sheet.

Connect the ends of each pair to form a circle and then shape each circle into a heart.

Sprinkle the surface of the hearts with the coloured sugar and bake as directed by your recipe.

When they are baked, place on a plate for everyone to enjoy!
