Matzo Crack

Guest blogger Jessica from Beauty Marks.
Matzo Crack has come to be a Passover staple, and is, as far as I’m concerned, the highest and best use of matzo. Some call it matzo Roca (and put almonds on it like Almond Roca), some matzo toffee – but matzo crack most aptly describes it. You will want more. You will scrape up the spilled baked brown sugar mixture from the cookie sheet. Your guests will rave.
