Step 18
Decorate all the cookies and don't forget the bigger hearts. I placed some almonds and cherries on them.

Bake accordingly to the manufacturers instructions.
 

 
 
 
NOTE
I usually bake everything at 110-130°C (230-266°F) for 20 minutes. I have an oven thermometer and I check if the temperature is right during the whole process.
