Rainbow heart cookies (No egg, no oven) recipe

Since it's Valentine's day had to make something really special and gave my hubby and daughter a lovely surprise! Tried making cookies with a heart shape inside it having rainbow colours and covered the heart with baby pink colour dough and then with colourful sugar balls. Of course it was time taking but the final outcome was just amazing! Have used gel colours of best quality for making these cookies. A must try for someone you love and make them feel special.
