Place the flour and cornstarch on the baking board. Cut the butter or margarine into small pieces and sprinkle over the flour along with the sugar, cinnamon, and egg. Using a wide spatula, finely chop the ingredients, then quickly knead into a smooth dough and let it chill for about 30 minutes. Then, on a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of about 2 mm and cut out small hearts. Place on a lightly greased baking tray. Melt the butter or margarine and brush over the hearts. Mix the cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over the hearts. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (top/bottom heat) (gas mark 3) for 8-10 minutes until golden brown.
