  2. Once rested, divide the dough into small portions and shape them into round balls. Gently press each ball and use a knife to create designs on the surface.

  3. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden.

  4. Remove from the oven, let the pastries cool slightly, and enjoy!
