  3. Rub in the margarine and knead until the dough comes together, adding up to 4 tsp of coconut milk as required. The dough should be smooth and dry - not sticky

  4. Shape dough into a ball, then divide in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one of the dough portions to about 1/4-inch thick

  5. Using a 2 inch round cutter, cut out shapes from the dough. Place the cutouts 1 inch apart on the baking sheet. You should get roughly 24 rounds from each dough half
