.Lightly grease a 10x15 jelly roll pan. Evenly spread the dough in the pan, making sure to reach the sides and corners. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

Spread with melted chocolate, the sprinkle with the chopped nuts, making sure to press the nuts gently into the chocolate so they stick. Allow to mostly cool, and then cut into squares. Store in an airtight container.

Description

This is a variation of many recipes around most of which use Matzo boards as a base. I like this one as it is similar to the one that I use for Hametz.

Servings

20-24

Notes

As you can see from the picture, we just had to try one before freezing them. Now, we want them all for ourselves. I took them from this pan and put them on a large cookie sheet and put them in the freezer. When they were frozen, I could stack them in a smaller container. I think I would like to cut the squares to triangles for a pretty presentation.
