Equipment

  • 1 Oven
  • 1 Parchment paper

Ingredients

  • 5 whole lightly salted matzo
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 12 ounces chocolate chips
  • 1 cup pecans coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  • Aluminum foil should be used to line a baking sheet. The bottom should then be covered with parchment paper. Over the baking sheet, spread the matzo out in a single, equal layer. Set the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Brown sugar and butter are heated in a sizable saucepan over medium-high heat while being regularly stirred. After it boils, stir continuously for a further five minutes. Get rid of the heat.
  • The toffee mixture should be properly distributed over the matzo before being poured on top of it.
  • The top of the toffee should be bubbling and dark brown after 10 minutes in the oven.
  • Immediately after removing the toffee from the oven, top it with the chocolate chips. Till they are softer, let the chips rest on the toffee. Over the top of the matzo toffee, distribute the chips in an equal layer.
  • While the chocolate is still warm and soft, top it with chopped pecans and sea salt to help the nuts adhere. For 10 to 20 minutes, let the candy chill in the refrigerator.
  • Matzo should be broken into the proper shapes and sizes. The matzo can also be neatly sliced into squares.
  • Serve immediately or present it as Christmas gifts by wrapping it.
