Passover brings us a time of wonderful family traditions, but also a little pain in the food department. Exchanging wonderful bread, crackers, and cookies for matzoh can be extremely difficult.
What helps make the holiday a little sweeter is chocolate covered matzoh!
We recommend Martha Stewart's homemade toffee-chocolate matzoh.
Ingredients4 sheets unsalted non-egg matzah
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1 (12-ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)
Coarse sea salt
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper Place matzah in an even layer on baking sheet and set aside.
3. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add brown sugar and immediately reduce temperature to low. Cook, stirring, adjusting heat as necessary, until sugar has completely dissolved and begins to bubble. Drizzle toffee over matzah and spread to cover using a spatula.
4. Transfer toffee-covered matzah to oven and bake until toffee has a rich, shiny sheen, 10 to 20 minutes.
5. Remove from oven and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Tent matzah with aluminum foil and let stand 20 to 30 minutes.
6. Remove foil tent and spread melted chocolate over matzah to cover; sprinkle with sea salt. Transfer matzah to refrigerator and let chill at least 2 hours.

7. Break chilled matzah into pieces. Matzah will keep in an airtight container for up to 4 days at room temperature.
If you don't have the time or patience to try this recipe, we recommend purchasing dipping chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave the chocolate in it's container and begin to dip squares of matzoh in the chocolate or drizzle the chocolate over sheets of matzoh. Let cool and enjoy!
