Passover is here and, amidst all of the hustle and bustle of life, you want to create good memories for your family. Jude Sloter shares with us a fabulous, chocolaty delight that has become a cherished tradition for her three children during Passover. Daughters, Mollie, 8, and Caroline, 5, help sprinkle on the toppings, and the whole family helps arrange these sweet matzos on a special plate.
Chocolate Covered Matzo

Preheat oven to 350°.
Line a cookie sheet with foil and place matzos on sheet, breaking if necessary to fill cookie sheet.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt butter and brown sugar, simmering 1 to 2 minutes or until mixture coats the back of a spoon.
Brush matzos with brown sugar mixture.
