6. Take the dough out, unwrap, roll again into a rectangular sheet. - - Spread another 1/4 cup margarine evenly. - - Now start folding over the ends to make another 3 layers. - - Cling wrap the dough and refrigerate for another 15 minutes.
7. Likewise repeat this rolling, folding, refrigerating for another 3 times to get layers.
