The margarine helps the cut-out cookies to keep their shape. Hi Rosie, You can, but you may experience some spreading of the cookies. The margarine helps the cut-out cookies to keep their shape.

Instead, I would reduce the salt, bumping it down to 1/2 teaspoon to start with, could go as low as 1/4 tsp. Hi Kat, I wouldn’t increase the sugar.

I chilled it overnight but it is still sticky. I couldn't roll it out for cookies so I ended up making rolled balls instead of shapes. Any suggestions what I did wrong? I want to try again because I would love to make some with cutters for my daughters birthday party. My dough never firmed up. I chilled it overnight but it is still sticky.

Recommend omitting the 1 tsp. salt when using margarine in recipe. Also no need to chill overnight ~just divide dough into 3 discs, cover with wax paper and put into fridge for 2-3 hours to chill. Roll out and make shapes. Perfect! Cookies held their shape very well during baking. Too salty! Recommend omitting the 1 tsp. salt when using margarine in recipe.

Do you happen to have the ability to vacuum seal them, like with a Food Saver or something like that? I think that would be your best option. If you don’t, I would recommend wrapping each one individually in plastic wrap and then placing in Ziploc bags. If you do ship them, I think that will keep them as fresh as possible. Hi Ram,

You could substitute real butter in this recipe. The cookies may spread a little (the margarine helps keep the exact shape), but I do use butter from time to time.
