Ingredients

6 plain matzo 1⁄2 cup sugar 1 cup butter 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (1 package) 1⁄2 cup walnuts (or almonds)

Instructions

Heat oven to 400º. Line cookie sheet with aluminum foil and lay matzo crackers in a single layer so that they completely cover the bottom of cookie sheet. In a saucepan melt butter and sugar over low heat. Raise the heat and boil 3 minutes. Pour over crackers, and place in oven for 5 minutes. Remove and immediately cover with chocolate chips. Bake for 30 seconds at 400º, remove and cover with nuts. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Notes

Variation – may use 1 cup brown firmly packed brown sugar instead of white sugar. May use chopped white chocolate or a combination of both.
