In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles dry, crumbly pea-sized pieces.

Gently stir in the beaten egg, grated cheese, and minced jalapeños until the mixture comes together.

Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for about 1 hour to firm up.

When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Shape the chilled dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a few inches apart.

Use the bottom of a mug or jar to gently flatten each dough ball.

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Allow the shortbread to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
