According to me the two daughters though have not taken birth from your own aunt but your father's sister married their father and hence the two become the daughters of your auntie too. Therefore they become your first cousin and as per Hindu law your step cousin falls with in prohibited relationship. But you can marry if your custom and traditions permit the marriage amongst the cousin or relationship. Only subject to your custom and tradition you can perform marriage with your cousin
