Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine ingredients in this order: Cream the margarine and sugar with an electric mixer. Add eggs, 6 tablespoons of honey, and 1 teaspoon vanilla and blend until smooth with the mixer. Into this mixture, add flour and baking soda. Mix into a thick dough. Chill dough until firm, preferably in freezer, approximately 2 hours. Pull off small pieces and roll into 1-inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes.
HONEY CRUNCH TOFFEE
Steps:
- In a saucepan, melt the butter. Add the sugar, water, honey, and dark rum and cook to 220 degrees F. on a candy thermometer. Add 1 3/4 cups of the almonds and stir while you cook it to hard crack or 300 degrees F. Meanwhile, lay a silpat on a sheet pan or butter a 12 by 18-inch sheet pan well. When the toffee is up to temperature, pour it out onto the pan and place another silpat on top. Roll it to 1/4-inch thick or just spread it with the back of a spoon and let cool.
- To temper the chocolate, place it over simmering water, melting it to 115 to 120 degrees F on a chocolate thermometer. Meanwhile, wipe the surface of the toffee with a damp towel to remove any excess butter and let dry for a few minutes. Turn off the heat, remove the bowl from the simmering water, and let cool, stirring until it reaches 82 to 86 degrees. It will begin to set a little around the edges at this point. Return the bowl to the hot (now turned off) water for a few seconds at a time, until it reaches 88 to 91 degrees F. Do not let it go over 91 degrees F or it will go out of temper. Using an offset spatula, spread the surface with the tempered chocolate and sprinkle on the remaining 1/4 cup almonds. Let it set up at room temperature and then break into pieces. Store in an airtight container.

Tips:
- Utilize parchment paper: Line your baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Chill the dough: Refrigerating the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
- Measure the flour correctly: To ensure accurate measurements, use a kitchen scale to weigh the flour instead of relying on volume measurements.
- Use fresh baking soda: Baking soda loses its potency over time, so make sure to use fresh baking soda for the best results.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can result in tough cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for honey crunch cookies is 350°F (175°C). Baking at a higher temperature can cause the cookies to burn.
- Watch the baking time: Keep a close eye on the cookies while they're baking. They should be golden brown around the edges but still slightly soft in the center.
