Indulge in decadent Matzo Toffee: crisp matzo, chocolate, brown sugar, and toasted hazelnuts for a special Passover treat!
Ingredients:
  • 4 sheets (4 ounces) plain matzo crackers
  • 1 cup (8 ounces) margarine
  • 1 cup (200 grams) brown sugar
  • 1 (10 to 12-ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup chopped roasted hazelnuts, pecans, walnuts, or almonds
  • 1 teaspoon flaky salt (optional)
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil followed by parchment paper. Arrange the matzo crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, breaking two of them as needed to fit.
  • Prepare the toffee: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt margarine with sugar until it reaches a boil. Stir occasionally. Boil for 3 minutes until the mixture reaches soft crack stage (270°F to 280°F) on a candy thermometer. This process generally takes about 10 to 11 minutes. Use a thermometer for accurate results.
  • Drizzle the toffee mixture onto the matzo, ensuring it covers the surface evenly. Swiftly spread it out using an offset spatula. Bake in the oven for 4 to 5 minutes until the toffee is bubbly all over.
  • Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the matzo toffee fresh out of the oven. Let them melt for about 3 minutes. Use an offset spatula to spread the chocolate evenly over the toffee. While the chocolate is still warm, add the toasted nuts and salt if desired. Gently tap the pan on the counter to settle the nuts into the chocolate for better adherence once the toffee sets.
  • Allow the toffee to cool completely for 2 to 3 hours. Cut into squares and serve. Store in a sealed container for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 2 months.
