that is stupid. No u can't
^^ actually YOU'RE stupid, yes you can.
I would use Crisco instead. With it your pastry will be good.
yes but the cookies will be dryer and take on a more cake-like consistency....if spread is all you have and you are not concerned about calories or fat, you can simmer the spread in a saucepan until the water has steamed off and you are left with the needed amount of oil...then refrigerate it so it will set up again
Baking spread is a type of fat used in baking that is a blend of oils and fats. It is used in baking recipes as a substitute for butter or margarine to add moisture and richness to baked goods.
When you're baking cookies, if you use shortening instead of butter, your cookies come out higher. They don't spread as much as they do with butter, so your cookies turn out like the ones in the pictures instead of flat.

Your cookies may not be spreading when baking due to factors such as using too much flour, not enough fat or sugar, or not chilling the dough before baking. Adjusting these ingredients and steps can help your cookies spread properly while baking.
Your cookies may not have spread during baking because the dough was too cold or had too much flour, preventing it from spreading properly.

You can but you'll need to reduce the quantity of any liquid added, since vegetable spread is higher in liquid than butter. Otherwise your batter will be too sloppy.
Some alternative uses for baking spread include using it as a substitute for butter in cooking, spreading it on toast or bread, adding it to mashed potatoes for extra flavor, and using it as a base for sauting vegetables.
