Use a conversion chart available on the internet. 1 1/2 cups of oil. I use neutral tasting Canola oil. Olive oil lends its own taste which would conflict with the orange juice. As to how many will this recipe yield, it would be dependent on the size of your cookie cutters.
how many cookies does this make? a whole pound of margarine is a lot of trans fats – hope you’re using non hydrogenated nowadays
