1

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and cover it with parchment paper.

Arrange matzo sheets in a single layer on the baking sheet, filling in gaps with broken pieces.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

4

In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of brown sugar and 2 sticks of unsalted butter.

5

Melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly until it bubbles and thickens.

6

Quickly pour the toffee mixture over the matzo sheets, spreading it with an offset spatula before it thickens.

7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.

8

Chop some pecans and pistachios for topping.

9

Remove the matzo from the oven and immediately sprinkle dark chocolate chips over the hot matzo.

10

Let the chocolate sit for about 3 minutes to melt, then spread it evenly over the matzo.

11

Sprinkle chopped pecans on one half and chopped pistachios on the other half of the chocolate-covered matzo.

12

Sprinkle a little pink himalayan sea salt over the top.

13

Let the matzo bark cool to room temperature on a cooling rack, then refrigerate for about 45 minutes until the chocolate is set.

Break or cut the matzo bark into pieces, about 2-inch squares, and store in a container in the refrigerator.
