Chocolate Covered Matzoh…(I wish I had grown the ingredients, but sometimes you just gotta splurge!)

I hope it isn't too late. It could be that every single box of matzoh has been taken…but I'll bet not. You still have time to pick some up – and while you're at it, grab some semi-sweet chocolate, some white chocolate, some dried fruit (make sure to include ginger) and some salty nuts. Do not get unsalted nuts. Trust me – this is all about the sweet-salty, the crunchy-creamy, the crisp-chewy interplay of the ingredients. You go for the unsalted nuts and you've messed the whole thing up.

Now, melt the chocolate. Do it in the microwave in a ceramic dish. No need to bother with tempering. You're going to cover the chocolate up anyway. Spread the melted chocolate on a crisp matzoh with a spatula, then add chopped nuts on top of the chocolate, then add the chopped dried fruit as well, pressing it all into the soft chocolate.


Melt the white chocolate, stirring to make sure it is very, very homogeneously melty. Spoon the melted chocolate into a plastic bag, snip a tiny corner off the bag and squish squiggles of white chocolate over the nuts and fruit. Stick the matzoh in the freezer until the chocolate is set – break the matzoh into pieces- and share.
