Ingredients
- 4-5 sheets of matzoh
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- Sea salt for sprinkling (optional)
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place the matzoh sheets in a single layer on the sheet, breaking them into smaller pieces if needed to fit.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture comes to a boil. Let it boil for 3-4 minutes, continuing to stir.
- Carefully pour the hot toffee mixture over the matzoh, spreading it evenly with a spatula to cover the entire surface.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the toffee becomes bubbly and golden brown.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot toffee-covered matzoh. Let it sit for a few minutes until the chocolate chips begin to melt.
- Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, spread the melted chocolate evenly over the toffee layer.
- If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts or sea salt over the melted chocolate for additional flavor and texture.
- Allow the matzoh candy to cool completely on the baking sheet. You can refrigerate it for faster cooling.
- Once cooled and hardened, break the candy into small, irregular pieces.
- Store the Matzoh Candy in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
