How to Make Passover Chocolate Matzah Candy

  1. Grease both sides of a large sheet of aluminum foil and place it in the bottom of a baking sheet.
  2. Arrange 10-12 matzah crackers on top of the foil, breaking them as needed to fit the pan completely.
  3. In a medium saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add 1 cup of granulated sugar (white or brown, depending on your preference) and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved.
  4. Carefully pour the melted butter and sugar mixture over the matzah, spreading it evenly to cover all the crackers.
  5. Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 5 minutes.
  6. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips over the top.
  7. Let stand for 3-5 minutes, or until the chocolate is melted.
  8. Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the matzah.
  9. (Optional) Sprinkle with 1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, pecans) or 1/4 cup sprinkles.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until completely firm.
  11. Break into pieces and enjoy!
