I made this deliciously sweet and crunchy chocolate-covered matzo to take to a Passover Seder. Wrapped up on a nice plate, it made a lovely Passover hostess gift.

Description:
Grown ups and kids might not love to have plain matzoh for all of Passover, so how about this delicious treat that the kids can even help make! Take it to a seder dinner or enjoy at home, it's a pretty snack or dessert to nosh on!
Ingredients:
3-4 boards matzoh
3/4 cup Passover margarine or butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1-1/2 cups chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)
1 cup of white chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts, hazelnuts or pecans (optional)
1/4 tsp. kosher salt or sea salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Spread the matzohs on a foil-lined baking sheet or pan in a single layer, breaking them to fit if necessary. Set aside.
3. Heat the butter or margarine and brown sugar in a medium saucepan to a boil. Pour gently and evenly over matzoh. Spread with a knife to make sure matzoh is coated well.
4. Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the caramel is a golden brown. TURN OFF THE OVEN.
5. Sprinkle the white and dark chocolate chips over the matzoh. Return the matzoh to the oven for about 2 minutes, while the oven is turned off.
6. Remove and spread the chocolate with the back of a flat spatula or a knife. Make a pattern, don't worry if it isn't perfect.
7. Sprinkle with kosher salt and nuts of your choice!
8. Cool at room temperature or in the fridge. Break into pieces, like bark. Enjoy!
Happy Passover! We also love these books for kids!
