Matzo Brickle

• 4 pieces matzo
• 1 cup salted butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 cups chocolate morsels
• 1 cup walnuts or almonds (your choice)

Method

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  Line a large cookie sheet with aluminum foil. (Cookie sheet has to have sides or you will have a big mess on your hands.)    

Lay pieces of Matzo in one layer on the pan.  Break it into pieces to fit as needed. 

Melt butter with brown sugar over medium heat.  Stir frequently until it bubbles. Pour over matzo and spread to cover.  Put in the oven for a minute or two. 

Sprinkle 2 cups of chocolate morsels on top and return to oven for 1 minute to melt morsels.  (I AM A DARK CHOCOLATE ADDICT!) 

Remove from oven and with a spatula spread chocolate.  Sprinkle with walnuts or almonds ground or sliced to your preference. 

Freeze 20 minutes until hard.  Crack into pieces and store in a zipper bag in the freezer.
