Step-by-Step Directions

1. Cream Butter & Sugars – In a stand mixer or using electric beaters, mix butter, shortening, sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy.

3. Incorporate Dry Ingredients – Add cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.

4. Add Flour – Gradually mix in the flour on low speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

5. Mix-Ins – Fold in crumbled honeycomb and candy jalapeños for that perfect sweet-heat balance.

6. Weigh & Shape – Portion cookie dough into 5oz balls for even baking.

7. Stuffing Option (Optional) – If you’re adding a honey-jalapeño core: Form cookie dough into small cups, add a spoonful of honey-jalapeño mixture in the center, and seal it up.

8. Chill the Dough – Refrigerate or freeze for 1-2 hours to help flavors meld and prevent spreading.

9. Bake – Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake on a lined cookie sheet for 24-26 minutes, or until golden brown. Adjust time if making larger cookies.
