Use 8-9cm Christmas cutters, such as snowflakes, trees, stars or angels, to cut shapes from dough. Alternatively, use a sharp knife to cut tag shapes or triangles. Place cookies onto the trays lined with baking paper. Press leftover dough together and repeat (you may need to refrigerate again).

Using a chopstick or a straw, make a small hole in the top of each biscuit for hanging. Place trays in freezer for 10 minutes or until dough is firm.
