Preparation:

Step 1
• Preheat oven to 230°C (430°F). Lightly grease a baking pan with nonstick spray.
Step 2
• Using a pastry cutter, chop the margarine and mix it with the flour until the mixture resembles coarse flour. Using a fork, mix in the sour milk to form a soft dough. Continue beating with a fork until all the flour is incorporated. Then, place the dough on a lightly floured board and knead it 3-4 times until soft and pliable.
Step 3
• Using your hands or a rolling pin, roll the dough out to a thickness of approximately 1 cm. Using a floured cookie cutter, cut out cookies about 6-7 cm in size. Then, place them in the cookie cutter, spacing them 2 cm apart for crispy edges or almost touching for softer ones. Bake the unsweetened cookies until golden brown, 10-12 minutes.
  
  Chef's tip: If you can't find self-rising flour, substitute 2 cups all-purpose flour with 3 teaspoons baking soda and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
