Matzo Candy
An unleavened, dairy-free, and delicious Passover treat
Ingredients:
- 3-4 salted matzo squares (I used 3 1/2)
- 2 Tbs coconut oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips, divided
- 1/4 cup roasted peanuts
Directions:
- Heat the coconut oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat until melted. Stir in the honey and vanilla until combined.
- Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the matzo squares on the tray, breaking them as needed to fit.
- Coat both sides of each matzo piece in the honey mixture and place on the parchment paper.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes. The caramel should be bubbling on the tray and the matzo golden. Be careful not to overcook.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup of chocolate chips (or more!) on the matzo pieces. Let sit for 5 minutes. Spread the melted chocolate evenly on the matzo.
- Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate chips and peanuts if desired. (I like to spread the chocolate chips around a bit to coat them in the melted chocolate and then sprinkle on the peanuts.)
- Place in the freezer or refrigerator until the chocolate is hardened.
- Break in pieces and store in the refrigerator.
