Form a big ball of dough and wrap in saran wrap before you place it for 30 minutes in the fridge.
Roll the dough out till about 0.5 cm thick.
Place a 5x5 cm square template or square shaped cookie cutter over the dough and cut squares out of the mass.
Place them on a baking sheet with baking paper and find a bottle cap to place in the middle of the cookie.
Fold the left and the right edge together in the middle over the bottle cap; not plastic, use glass, metal or aluminium.
Fold the bottom edge up over the middle.
If you have a little heart cookie cutter, cut a small heart out in the top edge.
