Hello friends! Today, I’m thrilled to share with you a recipe that’s pure indulgence—Chocolate Caramel Matzoh. As a proud member of the Jewish community, I feel it’s my obligation to spread the word about this chocolatey, caramely treat. I went 32 years without experiencing this delight, and trust me, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. The first time I encountered this gem was through my dear friend, Sarah, who may not be Jewish, but deserves honorary status for introducing me to such sweetness.
This version of the recipe is inspired by the talented David Lebovitz. I’ve taken the liberty to simplify it a bit—because let’s face it, who has the time for parchment paper? He also mentions that you can use saltines in place of matzoh, which I completely believe.
Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this deliciousness:
- 6 sheets of unsalted matzoh
- 1 cup unsalted butter, chopped into chunks
- 1 cup firmly-packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup toasted sliced almonds
Now, let’s get cooking:
- Start by lining a rimmed baking sheet with tin foil.
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Lay the matzoh sheets on the baking sheet, breaking pieces as needed to fill gaps.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring until the mixture is bubbling.
- Let it boil for 3 minutes while stirring constantly.
- Remove it from the heat and mix in the vanilla and half of the salt.
- Pour this mixture over the matzoh, using a heatproof spatula to spread it evenly.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Take it out of the oven and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips on top. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes, then spread the melted chocolate over the matzoh.
- Finish off by sprinkling the toasted almonds and the remaining sea salt.
And voila! I like to pop mine in the freezer for a bit to firm up before breaking it into pieces. Don’t judge me when I say I devoured it all at once—it was a true religious experience.
