This crunchy sweet toffee is the perfect snack for Passover--and so good and easy to prepare, you'll crave it all year!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups coarsely crumbled matzos

  • 1 ½ cups sliced almonds

  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter

  • ½ cup packed light-brown sugar

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment. In a bowl, toss matzo pieces with almonds.

  2. In a saucepan, bring butter, sugar, salt, and 2 tablespoons water to a boil over medium, stirring constantly. Working quickly, drizzle matzo mixture with syrup, and toss.

  3. Using a heatproof spatula, spread mixture onto prepared sheet. Bake until golden, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with chocolate chips. Let chocolate melt 5 minutes; spread chocolate over matzo toffee. Refrigerate until chocolate has set. Break into pieces, and serve.
