Ingredients
  • 5 sheets of plain matzo
  • 8 tablespoon (1 stick) butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • desired toppings, such as: sprinkles, crushed oreos, mini marshmallows, m&ms, fruit
Directions
  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: On the baking sheets, evenly distribute 5 sheets of matzo (break to fit if needed).
  3. Step 3: To a saucepan, add 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter and 1 cup brown sugar. Over medium heat, stir until melted, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Pour caramel mixture over matzo and spread evenly. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes.
  5. Step 5: As soon as matzo comes out of the oven, sprinkle with 1 cup chocolate chips. Spread the chocolate as it starts to melt. Spread evenly over matzo and then top with any toppings you’d like, such as sprinkles, mini marshmallows, fruit, or M&Ms.
  6. Step 6: Break into pieces once cooled. To store, put matzo candy pieces in an airtight container in the fridge.
