CHOCOLATE TOFFEE MATZO CANDY



Chocolate Toffee Matzo Candy image

This sweet-and-salty holiday treat made with matzo is so delicious, you'll probably want to make it all year.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Nonstick cooking spray, for the foil
5 salted matzo crackers
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (from a 12-ounce bag)
1 teaspoon flaky sea salt, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray lightly with nonstick spray. Arrange the matzo crackers in a single layer on the foil, breaking them as necessary to fit. (Depending on their size, you may not need to use all of the crackers.)
  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the sugar and kosher salt and bring to a full boil; the mixture should be bubbling all over, not just on the edges. Continue to boil for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally so the sugar and butter caramelize evenly. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
  • Pour the mixture over the top of the matzo. Using a rubber spatula, quickly spread the toffee mixture to coat the matzo. (It does not have to be perfect; the oven will even it out). Bake until the toffee is bubbling, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the hot toffee in an even layer. Let sit until the chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Use an offset spatula to gently spread out the chocolate, then sprinkle with the sea salt, if using. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour, then refrigerate for another hour to set completely.
  • Break into pieces and serve, or store in an airtight container at cool room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

CARAMEL MATZO CRUNCH



Caramel Matzo Crunch image

This is the best easiest passover dessert, crunchy toffee like matzo is to die for.

Provided by Marcy Goldman

Categories     Desserts

Time 15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

4-6 unsalted matzohs
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter or unsalted Passover margarine
1 cup light brown sugar, packed firmly
1 envelope Passover vanilla sugar or 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • 1 Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a large (or two smaller) cookie sheet completely with foil. Cover the bottom of the sheet with baking parchment-on top of the foil. This is very important since the mixture becomes sticky during baking. 2 Line the bottom of the cookie sheet evenly with the matzohs, cutting extra pieces, as required, to fit any spaces. 3 In a 3-quart, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the butter or margarine and the brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil (about 2 to 4 minutes). Boil for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat, add the vanilla and pour over the matzoh, covering completely. 4 Place the baking sheet in the oven and immediately reduce the heat to 350°F. Bake for 15 minutes, checking every few minutes to make sure the mixture is not burning (if it seems to be browning too quickly, remove the pan from the oven, lower the heat to 325°F, and replace the pan). 5 Remove from the oven and sprinkle immediately with the chopped chocolate or chips. Let stand for 5 minutes, then spread the melted chocolate over the matzoh. While still warm, break into squares or odd shapes. Chill, still in the pan, in the freezer until set. 6 VARIATION: You can also use coarsely chopped white chocolate (or a combination of white and dark), and chopped or slivered toasted almonds (sprinkled on top as the chocolate sets). You can also omit the chocolate for a caramel-alone buttercrunch. Ingredient note: If you use vanilla at Passover, use it. If not, the white vanilla sugar, for Passover, is fine. Or you can leave it out entirely. White sugar: If you prefer white sugar, or if you can't find kosher brown sugar (i.e. for Passover) follow these directions: Note: Place 2 cups of white sugar in a heavy bottomed saucepan with 2 tablespoons of water. Heat on low to medium until sugar dissolves. Continue cooking until mixture turns medium amber. Pour over matzoh which is laid out on baking sheets. Spread and sprinkle on chocolate chips. NO BAKING for this version. Source: BetterBaking.com

MATZAH CRACK



MATZAH CRACK image

Categories     Cookies     Chocolate     Bake     Passover     Kid-Friendly     Quick & Easy

Number Of Ingredients 4

4-6 unsalted matzohs
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter or unsalted Passover margerine
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 cup chopped chocolate chips or semi -sweet chocolate.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375º Line a large cookie sheet completely with foil. Cover the bottom of the sheet with parchment paper - on top of the foil since this mixture carmelizes in the oven, this helps to prevent adherence to the aluminium foil. Line the bootom of the cookie sheet with the matzohs. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the butter and the brown sugar. Cook over medium heat until the mixture comes to a small boil. Then boil on a slow boil for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and pour over the matzoh, covering it completely. Place the baking sheet in the oven and immediately reduce the heat to 350º. Bake for 15 minutes, checking regularly to make sure that it's not burning or dripping over the sides. If it's browing too quickly, reduce the heat to 325º. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate over the carmelized matzoh. Let stand for a couple of minutes and then spread the melted chocolate over the matzoh with a spatula. While still warm, break the chocolate covered matzoh into squares or odd shapes (thus the crack!) Then chill the entire thing including the pan in the freezer until set. Dare to keep your hands off it. (You don't have to add chocolate and it tastes yummy, too and this would be great on top of some baked sweet potatoes!) Some people add nuts like almonds or pecans instead of or with the chocolate, but we can't...so just go with your own tastes. Also, if it's not Passover, I would try this on graham crackers instead of matzoh!!!!

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with heavy duty aluminum foil, making sure the foil goes up and over the edges, and top with a sheet of parchment paper.
  • Cover the baking sheet with the matzos, cutting and piecing them together as necessary to fill the entire pan.
  • Make the toffee: Combine butter and brown sugar in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk, until the mixture comes to a boil. (If it looks like it’s separating, just keep stirring; it will come together.) Once the mixture comes to a boil, continue cooking and stirring for another 3 minutes until foamy and thickened. (Be extra careful -- the toffee will be very hot!) Immediately pour the toffee over the matzos and, using a spatula, spread into an even layer.
  • Put the pan into the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the toffee topping is crackled and bubbling all over. Remove the pan from the oven and place on wire cooling rack on the counter. Immediately scatter the chocolate chips evenly over top. Wait 3 to 5 minutes for the chips to soften, then use an offset spatula to spread the chocolate into an even layer. Sprinkle with the pecans and sea salt. Refrigerate until the chocolate is firm, about 45 minutes. Don't leave it in the fridge too much longer, otherwise it will be hard to cut.

  • Preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C). Ideally you would place a pizza stone on the bottom oven rack, but realistically a 10-by-15-inch baking sheet will work just dandy.
  • In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients, starting with just 3/4 cup water, until everything comes together to form a dough. If the dough seems dry, add a little more water, just a few drops at a time. Be sparing with the water and do not add so much that the dough becomes sticky.
  • If you do not need the matzoh to be kosher for Passover, let the dough rest for 10 to 15 minutes. If you do need the matzoh to be kosher for Passover, proceed immediately to the next step so that you can attempt to finish everything in 18 minutes. You may want to ask for help to ensure that you complete it in time.
  • Divide the dough into 8 pieces. Flatten a piece slightly and pass it repeatedly through a pasta maker, reducing the thickness each time until you eventually reach the thinnest or minimum setting on your pasta machine. Alternately, you can simply roll the dough as thinly as possible with a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.

  • Make a thick dough. Knead briefly until dough is smooth and elastic. If you want them Kosher for Passover, you’ll want to keep going here, but if not, you can let the dough rest for 15 minutes before proceeding. This makes it easier to roll thinly.
