Finally, decorate with sprinkles and allow the cookies to cool and the chocolate to set. Once the chocolate and caramel has hardened, remove the cookies from the cookie cutters, and serve.

TIPS:

Do not roast the perilla seeds for more than 5 minutes, else they will give a bitter taste.
Experiment with different shapes and sizes of cookie cutters for a variety of designs.
You can customize the toppings by using crushed nuts, coconut flakes, edible flowers, or edible glitter.
You can also add nuts like chopped walnuts, almonds, and cashews or even dried fruits like cranberries and raisins for more texture and a burst of flavor.
If you want to make the Perilla Hearts taste gourmet, use dark chocolate for frosting and sprinkle some flaky sea salt as the final garnish.
