Melt the fat, mix 250g of flour, lemon zest, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Heat the milk to lukewarm, crumble the yeast, and dissolve it in the flour. Pour the fat and yeast mixture into the flour and knead everything well using the dough hook of a hand mixer. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. Knead again vigorously. Roll out on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of 1-1 1/2cm. Using heart-shaped cookie cutters or homemade stencils made from sturdy cardboard (approx. 7 x 9 cm), cut out or cut out 6 hearts. Place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Let rise in a warm place for another 15 minutes. Whisk the egg yolk and cream together and brush the hearts with this mixture. Sprinkle with sesame, poppy seeds, linseed, or sunflower seeds. Bake in a preheated oven (electric oven: 200°C / fan oven: 175°C / gas mark 3) for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. The rolls can be pre-baked and frozen. Remove from the freezer the night before and thaw in a preheated oven (175°C) for about 5 minutes the next morning.
