  4. Shape each piece into a cylinder about 1 1/2 inches (4 cm) in diameter and 7 inches (18 cm) long. Wrap the logs in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until firm, at least 2 hours.

The Baking

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove the dough from the refrigerator, unwrap the plastic wrap and let it rest for 10 minutes. Use a sharp knife to slice the dough into rounds about 1/3 inch (7 mm) thick. Place the sliced dough on the baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of space between the rounds.
