Method
1.In a bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar together until pale and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Sift flours and cocoa together. Fold into creamed mixture.
2.Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Knead lightly, press together and divide in half. Shape each piece into a disc shape. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill 30 minutes.
3.Line an oven tray with baking paper, allowing 2cm overhang. Spread ice-cream evenly over tray. Smooth surface and cover with baking paper. Freeze until very firm (about 2 hours).
4.Preheat oven to moderate, 80°C. Line two oven trays with baking paper.
5.Roll out each dough disc between two sheets baking paper until 3mm thick. Using a 7.5cm heart-shaped cutter, cut eight biscuits from each dough sheet. Transfer to trays. Chill 15 minutes.
6.Bake 15-20 minutes, until cooked, cool on tray 5 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
7.Lift ice-cream onto a board. Peel off top layer of paper. Using art-shaped cutter, cut out eight hearts. Sandwich each ice-cream heart between two biscuits. Return a freezer until ready to serve.
8.To decorate, make a small heart template from baking paper. Place on top biscuit and dust with icing sugar. Remove template and top biscuit with half a strawberry.
