How to make chocolate toffee matzo:
— The chocolate chips. Because all you need for the chocolate coating is chocolate chips, this recipe is very versatile. You can use milk, semisweet, dark, or white chocolate chips.
— The nuts. The nuts are negotiable too, so sub in anything your heart desires (we can vouch for rainbow sprinkles and crushed peppermints).
— Make it kosher. Just make sure that whatever ingredients you use are kosher for Passover. This recipe calls for corn syrup which for some Jews is not seen as kosher for Passover. In which case, feel free to sub the corn syrup for agave nectar.
