Valentine's Day. Love? Hate? Indifferent?
I thought we'd celebrate at home then changed my mind only to find out that our baby-sitter is unavailable tomorrow.
Bah, nevermind. I baked biscuits.
This is an adaptation of Nigella's custard cream hearts recipe in Feast. You just substitute 25g of cocoa for the same amount of flour. Eva has the recipe posted here. If you were to eat the biscuits on their own, they are nice and crumbly and not very sweet. Once they are sandwiched with the custard cream, it becomes difficult to stop eating them.
They look a bit rustic, which I like. I tried to make them look fancier using photo applications but that proved too much trouble to upload. I find they are a more realistic representation of love in daily life. Not photoshop perfect!
