Set dough aside for about 10 minutes.

Always sprinkle a little flour on the board and use a little piece of dough at the time.

With a rolling pin, stretch the dough, not too thin, not too thick, about 1/4 of an inch.

Use cookie cutters (in this case, hearts) and place them on a greased cookie sheet

I spray them with PAM

Beat egg white and brush it on the cookies so topping will stick
