Matzah Candy Aka The Best Passover Dessert Food

MY TRADEMARK, MOST REQUESTED, ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT CARAMEL MATZOH CRUNCH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a large (or two smaller) cookie sheet completely with foil. Cover the bottom of the sheet with baking parchment - on top of the foil. This is very important since the mixture becomes sticky during baking.
• Line the bottom of the cookie sheet evenly with the matzohs, cutting extra pieces, as required, to fit any spaces.
• In a 3-quart, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the butter or margarine and the brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil (about 2 to 4 minutes). Boil for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and pour over the matzoh, covering completely.
• Place the baking sheet in the oven and immediately reduce the heat to 350°. Bake for 15 minutes, checking every few minutes to make sure the mixture is not burning (if it seems to be browning too quickly, remove the pan from the oven, lower the heat to 325°, and replace the pan).
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle immediately with the chopped chocolate or chips. Let stand for 5 minutes, then spread the melted chocolate over the matzoh. While still warm, break into squares or odd shapes. Chill, still in the pan, in the freezer until set.
• This makes a good gift.
• Variation:
• You can also use coarsely chopped white chocolate (or a combination of white and dark), and chopped or slivered toasted almonds (sprinkled on top as the chocolate sets). You can also omit the chocolate for a caramel-alone buttercrunch.

PASSOVER CHOCOLATE MATZAH CANDY

Steps:

• Grease both sides of aluminum foil and set in the bottom of a cookie sheet.
• Arrange the matzah on top of the foil breaking them, if necessary, to fit the pan completely.
• Melt the butter and add the sugar and cook for 3 minutes.
• Pour mixture over the matzah and spread evenly to cover them all.
• Put into a 350 degree oven for 5 minutes.
• Remove from oven and sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top.
• It will take approximately 3-5 minutes for the chocolate to melt.
• When melted spread over the top of the matzah.
• If desired, sprinkle with chopped nuts.
• Refrigerate till firm.
• Break into pieces.
