Passover has a special
place in my heart. Not because I’m Jewish (though I can totally spell yarmulke
without skipping a beat), but because I shovel shards of matzo into my mouth
like it’s the last cracker on earth. Now is THE time to run to the supermarket
and scoop up every last box of gluten free matzo on the shelf. (But don’t go to
the Hillsborough or Bridgewater Shoprite. I stockpile matzo. So freaking what.)
I had thought there was not a thing so perfect
as a square of matzo topped with a smear of butter and plenty of salt. That was
until I gave matzo crack a whirl. Don’t make me explain to you why it’s called
crack. Things could get inappropriate around here. Instead, just make it. And
leave the leftovers at your family’s house in New Jersey so you don’t wind up
eating 2 sticks of butter for dinner. Ya hear?
PS. The Passover/Kosher
section also has intriguing little finds like coconut macaroon pie shells. Yup,
that’s a thing.
Notes
-I’ve heard/read that
you can also make this with saltines or other plain crackers. Very worth giving it a shot if you can’t
find gluten free matzo!
-Toasted coconut would
probably be really good on top, in addition or instead of the nuts. Kinda
reminds me of magic 7 layer bars.
Ingredients
About 6 sheets of gluten
free matzo
2 sticks unsalted butter
1 cup lightly packed
brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Big pinch of kosher or
sea salt, plus extra for sprinkling
1.5 cups chocolate chips
(whatever kind you prefer; I used semisweet)
1 cup toasted, sliced
almonds (substitute chopped pecans or walnuts)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350
degrees.
Line a large (around 13”
x 18”) baking sheet very well with
foil. You don’t want to skimp here – make sure it wraps up over the edges.
Caramel is a jerk to clean up. Then, cut a piece of parchment paper so it fits
in the bottom of the baking sheet.
Arrange the sheets of
matzo on top of the parchment paper so they’re covering the sheet as best you
can. You’ll need to break a few pieces – if you’re careful you can use the
perforations on the crackers.
Place the butter and
brown sugar in a medium pot or saucepan and place over medium heat. Cook until
the butter and sugar are melted, stirring occasionally. Once the mixture comes
to a boil, cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove the pot from the
heat, and add vanilla plus a big pinch of salt. Stir to combine.
Drizzle the caramel over
the matzo and use a rubber spatula to spread an even layer over the crackers.
Work quickly – the caramel will start to thicken and harden as it cools.
Place the baking sheet
in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. The caramel coated crackers will get
bubbly and golden. Keep an eye on it towards the end it pull it out if the
edges of the matzo start to get too dark.
Remove the baking sheet
from the oven, and immediately sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the
top. Let sit for 5 minutes, then use an offset spatula (or rubber spatula if
you don’t have one) to spread the melted chocolate in an even layer. While the
chocolate is still melted, sprinkle the entire top with extra salt and nuts, if
using.
Allow the crack to
harden completely before breaking it
into pieces. (You can put it in the fridge to speed up the process – and you
should.) Store in an airtight container if not eating right away.
