Follow The Directions
01
Step
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter. (5 minutes)
02
Step
Arrange the matzoh in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared dish, breaking the sheets as needed to fit snugly and cover the entire surface. (5 minutes)
03
Step
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the brown sugar and stir constantly until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth and bubbling. This should take about 3-5 minutes. (5 minutes)
04
Step
Carefully pour the hot butter-sugar mixture evenly over the matzoh, ensuring that all the matzoh is covered. (2 minutes)
05
Step
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the caramel is bubbling vigorously and slightly darkened in color. Watch closely to prevent burning. (15 minutes)
06
Step
Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the hot caramel-covered matzoh. (1 minute)
07
Step
Let the candy stand for 5 minutes to allow the chocolate chips to melt and soften. (5 minutes)
08
Step
Using a spatula, gently spread the melted chocolate evenly over the entire surface of the candy. (2 minutes)
09
Step
Allow the candy to cool completely at room temperature, or for faster setting, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. (30 minutes)
10
Step
Once the candy is firm and set, break it into irregular pieces and serve. Enjoy! (2 minutes)
For a richer flavor, use European-style butter.
Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate, such as milk chocolate, white chocolate, or even peanut butter chips.
To add some crunch and texture, sprinkle chopped nuts (such as pecans, walnuts, or almonds) over the melted chocolate before it sets.
A sprinkle of sea salt on top of the melted chocolate enhances the sweet-salty contrast.
Store the Matzoh Candy in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or in the refrigerator for longer storage.

Apr 16, 2025I substituted peanut butter chips for half of the chocolate chips, and it was a huge hit!

Apr 5, 2025The caramel was a little too dark the first time I made it, so I reduced the baking time by a couple of minutes the next time, and it was perfect.
