Can I substitute oil for the margarine? If so, how much oil?Replies:
I am waiting for someone to answer. I don't make yeast cakes... I think the margarine must add a component that oil won't. -

Egg Whites
I live in Israel and my makolet has no Haddar egg white liquid. What are the equivalencies I need? Thanks.Replies:
I'm the one who actually made the recipe and photographed it. I just measured out the appropriate amount of egg whites from actual eggs. Don't worry about the brands and products that are not available here, you just need egg whites.
8-12 egg whites is how many you would need for a cup. -

HI Devorah. Unfortunately these pictures were taken so many years ago. I would guess the filling with the most cocoa and margarine...
The filling is filling #7. Enjoy!
