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.

CHOCOLATE-CARAMEL MATZO TOFFEE



Chocolate-Caramel Matzo Toffee image

Matzo toffee is the Passover-friendly take on saltine toffee. A layered confection of matzo crackers, brown sugar caramel and melted chocolate, you can top it with practically anything you like, from the most elegantly minimal sprinkle of sea salt to a surfeit of nuts, dried fruit, potato chips, or a combination. Matzo toffee keeps well when stored airtight at room temperature - up to one week, if you haven't finished it by then.

Time 50m

Yield About 2 dozen pieces

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 to 6 sheets matzo, preferably salted
1 cup/225 grams unsalted butter (2 sticks)
1 1/2 packed cups/315 grams light brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Large pinch of fine sea salt
7 ounces chopped bittersweet, milk or white chocolate, or a combination (about 1 cup)
Toppings, as desired (see note)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 13-by-18-inch rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, allowing it to go up and over the edges of the pan. Line the bottom of the pan with a piece of parchment. Arrange matzo over parchment in an even layer, breaking pieces to fit as necessary.
  • In a medium pot over medium-high heat, bring butter and sugar to a boil, whisking, until thickened and smooth, about 3 minutes. The mixture may separate, and that is O.K. Stir in vanilla and salt. Quickly pour mixture over matzos. Transfer baking sheet to oven and bake until bubbly, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven. Sprinkle chocolate evenly over caramel and let stand until softened, about 5 minutes. Use an offset spatula to spread chocolate smoothly over surface of toffee. If you've used different kinds of chocolate, you can swirl them together decoratively.
  • Immediately sprinkle melted chocolate with desired topping. Transfer baking sheet to refrigerator and chill toffee 1 hour to set chocolate. Break matzo toffee into large pieces for storing and serving.
