Conversation Heart Cookies
Conversation hearts are a fun treat for Valentine's Day, it isn't often your desserts communicate so clearly! We used Rosanna Pansino's recipe for these cookies and topped them with our favorite Massamoretti Rolling Fondant tinted to a few perfect pastel shades. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
