  4. Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper with a rolling pin to a thickness of half a centimeter (about 1/4 inch). Cut out rounds with a round cutter, remove the excess dough between the shapes and bake at 180 °C (350 °F) for about 10 minutes. You can also knead the scraps together again and make more cookies by repeating the rolling and cutting.
