Parmesan stars and hearts

Parmesan stars and hearts
 
10 slices white sandwich bread
olive oil, for brushing
4 02 (125 g) freshly grated parmesan cheese
Sea salt to taste
 
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C/Gas 6). 
 
Using 2-inch (5-cm) star and heart cookie (pastry) cutters, press out 
shapes in each slice of bread. Brush one sea salt to taste side with olive oil and place shapes, oiled side up, on a parchment-lined (baking paper-lined) baking sheet. Spoon grated parmesan onto oiled side of bread, covering bread as well as possible, then sprinkle with sea salt.
Cook in preheated oven until golden, 7-10 minutes. Keep an eye on the shapes while they bake, as they can burn very quickly.
Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
