Push it down until near the cut edges, then heat the bottle cap, and push a skewer at the center slowly until extended. Let it cool completely, then cut the tip to make an opening, and put the cap back on the mouth of the bottle.
#3: DIY Cookie Cutter
Cut a ring out a palstic bottle making sure to use one with a straight body, then fold it in half, and pinch both of the center as shown in the video. You should have a perfect heart shape that you can use to cut your dough out, you can easily resize this as well and even try different shapes.

Press the body of the bottle but not all the way through, then aim the mouth of the bottle to the egg yolk, and release the body of the bottle to let the air and egg yolk pass through.
