Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter or nondairy margarine, room temperature
- 3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted
- 1/2 cup matzo meal
- 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
- 4 large egg whites
- 8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter or margarine and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy. Beat in egg yolks and vanilla. Add chocolate, matzo meal, and salt. Beat until mixture just comes together. (It should be thick.)
In a clean bowl and with a whisk attachment, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into chocolate mixture. Add chocolate chips, and stir. Let stand 15 minutes.
Scoop 2-inch balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on sheet on a wire rack for 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to rack, and let cool completely.

The taste of these are amazing..but I had 2 major problems.. firstly, the chocolate mixture was so thick, that I couldn't properly fold in the whites, so they got squished and flat..secondly, once I did manage to mix in the whites, the mixture was quite runny, so the batter was very loose the the cookies came out really flat. I tried putting it in the fridge for a bit, but this didn't help much.
Any suggstions?

Once the cookies are made, can they be frozen?

I used slightly less sugar (American recipes are too sweet for my taste) and chopped up chocolate for chips as I didn't have chips. They hardly spread at all and could be transferred perfectly from the baking paper with a spatula. After they cooled I stuck them in a tupperware, they were DELICIOUS. I had to hide them so they wouldn't vanish straight away!

I never tasted a Passover dessert recipe as good as this one, first I made double the recipe then I made it like 5 more times, if you aren't sure which recipe will be good it should be this one!!!!!!!!!

I made these today. I doubled the recipe but I only added 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips at the end. I let it sit for about 20 mins. They are awesome. They cooked perfect for me. It made about 80 + cookies.

The taste of these cookies is amazing but they spread out so much during cooking so they turn out paper thin. Maybe the dough needs chilling before baking.

I made a triple batch right away and only regretted not making more. No one believed these were Passover cookies. They melt in your mouth, that's how good they are.

Easy and delicious. I used these exact ingredients (not matzoh cake meal). Suggestions: let sit longer than 2 mins on cookie sheet (to keep them from falling apart) before you put them on the wire rack. Also, since they dont spread much, you can fit a lot on one cookie sheet. Makes close to 25 cookies

These are delicious for Passover cookies. Only problem is they are so soft that they fell apart going from the pan to the rack to cool. I wonder if there should be more mazto meal? Any suggestions to make them better? They are good though.

I'm thinking the 1/2 cup matzo meal should be 1/2 cup matzo cake meal. Have you tried this recipe successfully with matzo meal? 16 oz. of chocolate is a lot to waste. Reply ASAP please, I want to bake today
