How to Make Matzo Toffee Brittle

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 15x10 inch jelly-roll pan with nonstick aluminum foil, leaving some overhang on the sides to help with lifting.
  2. Arrange matzos in the prepared pan, breaking as needed to fit and completely cover the bottom.
  3. In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine butter and brown sugar. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring constantly.
  4. Boil for exactly 3 minutes, stirring continuously to prevent burning.
  5. Carefully and quickly pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over the matzos in the pan. Spread it out to an even thickness using a spatula.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the toffee is golden brown and bubbly.
  7. Carefully remove the pan from the oven and place it on a wire rack.
  8. Let stand for 1 minute, or until the bubbling subsides.
  9. Sprinkle the milk chocolate morsels evenly over the hot toffee.
  10. Let stand for 1 minute to allow the morsels to soften slightly.
  11. Using a spatula, gently spread the softened morsels over the toffee.
  12. Sprinkle the almonds evenly over the chocolate.
  13. Let the brittle cool completely at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  14. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely firm.
  15. Using the foil overhang, lift the brittle from the pan and break it into approximately 20 pieces.
  16. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
