Mix the milk with the water in a bowl and dissolve the yeast with the salt
In another bowl, place 3 cups of flour, make a depression in the center, and add the olive oil
Add the milk with the yeast, and mix with your fingers until the dough is homogeneous and elastic
Spread the remaining flour on a surface, place the dough, and knead well
Let the dough rise in a covered bowl, protected from drafts, for one hour
Bend the dough into 5 portions (each about 100g) and shape the mini cakes as desired
The mini cake is ready
For the porcupine: Shape the body oval
Make cuts on the body of the mini cake with scissors
Place two black olives to form eyes
For the turtle: Mold the body, attach the fins, and make the eyes with black olives
Cut squares from the back of the turtle
Dust with grated cheese after brushing with egg
Place the mini cakes in a baking dish and bake in a hot oven (250°C) for 20 minutes, or until golden brown
For the snail: Make two rolls with the dough: one 2cm wide by 8cm long and another 2cm wide by 12cm
Enroll the last one to form a snail shell
Dip the bottom in water and attach it to the 8cm roll
Make antennae using almonds
Brush with beaten egg and decorate with poppy seeds
For the doll: Mold a body with a larger piece of dough
Make arms and legs and attach them to the body, moistening your finger in the dough
