Have all ingredients at room temperature. Blend thoroughly in food processor until mixture forms large clumps. Shape into ball, cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour. Or, freeze the dough in log shape and bake cookies later.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Divide dough in half; keep remaining half covered. Roll to 1/4-inch thickness between sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap sprinkled with rice flour. Cut cookies with heart-shaped, metal cookie cutters.
Transfer to ungreased, nonstick baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough. For easy handling, roll dough on parchment paper or teflon baking liners, cut out cookies, remove scraps, and transfer liner-cookies and all-to baking sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are set. Cool 2 minutes before moving from pan. Cool thoroughly before decorating.
