Passover Recipes in a Pinch!
I am always searching for Passover recipes. I prefer the ones that I am not slaving in the kitchen for hours but everybody thinks I did!
Here are a few of my fave:
First one is the 4 ingredient Miracle Bar I posted on Facebook:
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups ground almonds
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup chocolate chips
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375; Grease a 9×13 pan. Mix ingredients together and spread in pan with spatula. Batter will be thick but do not add water. Just mix it well. Bake for 23 minutes. — OR — Shape into cookies and bake 12–15 minutes. Do not undercook
Easy Peasy and yummy!
MATZO ROCK CANDY
This recipe was given to me by my friend Jen several years ago. It is such a hit, I make it EVERY YEAR!!!
INGREDIENTS
- 2 packages of semi sweet chocolate chips – 12 oz
- 1/2 box of matzah farfalle
- 1 cup walnuts (skip the nuts for nut free version!)
- 1 cup raisins
- 1 bag of mini marshmallows
- 1/4 cup of canola oil
DIRECTIONS
Carefully microwave chocolate and oil in 1 minute intervals. Stir until almost melted. Then dump all additional ingredients into chocolate bowl and mix all together. On 2 throw away sheets spread mix onto each sheet. Freeze overnight and over with aluminum foil. Then the next day break the candy apart and put into baggies, store and Freeze.
Last one that is also a crowd pleaser!!!
Flourless Chocolate, Almond and Coconut Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted Slivered Or Sliced Almonds
- 1 cup Sweetened Shredded Coconut
- ½ cups Plus 3 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa
- 3 cups Powdered Sugar
- ½ teaspoons Kosher Salt
- 4 whole Egg Whites, At Room Temperature
- 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
- ¾ cups Mini Chocolate Chips
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Spread almond slivers and shredded coconut evenly on a large rimmed baking pan. Place in the oven and toast for about 7-8 minutes, turning/tossing once halfway through, until golden brown and fragrant. Reduce heat to 325ºF.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk together cocoa (1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons total), powdered sugar, and salt. Continue whisking while adding egg whites and vanilla extract, mixing until just moistened. Don’t overwhisk or the eggs will stiffen. Stir in almonds, coconut, and chocolate chips.
3. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. (I highly suggest using parchment paper). Spoon batter by the tablespoon onto the baking sheet (this makes 24) or by heaping tablespoons (this makes 18 large cookies).
4. Bake for 14-16 minutes, turning pans and shifting the top to bottom rack halfway through. Cookies are finished when tops are shiny and cracked. Slide the cookies off the pans and allow to cool completely before serving.
Enjoy! Happy Passover!

All your recipe have nuts with this allergic reaction don’t work in my household and in many more. You should really provide a substitute
Can we use something else besides nuts?
what is “powdered ” sugar?
These recipes look amazing. Thank you for sharing. It is rather shocking that people are criticizing your use of nuts and not providing an alternative. I have allergies and I don’t expect every single recipe ever shared to offer numerous variations, substitutions, omissions, etc. Find a different recipe… there are thousands out there. OR, perhaps, adjust it yourself! Really people, this wasn’t a personal attack.
My cousin shared the link for these recipes. Tonight I baked the chocolate, almond, coconut cookies for Passover. They are absolutely awesome!!! I followed the recipe to the letter! These cookies are bound to be a favorite at my Seder and I look forward to baking the other 2 recipes! Thank you so much!!
where do you get pesadic chocolate chips?
Thank you for sharing your recipes. The chocolate matzah looks awesome, but what is matzah farfalle?
To anonymous: Powdered sugar is also known as confectioners sugar.
To anonymous per nuts; I’m quite sure you know how to be creative if you cannot tolerate nuts.
Many recipes can be adjusted to your own preference. If you do not want any other alternatives, then simply make it without the addition of nuts.
Cooking and baking is all about being creative and having fun! You’ll never know of variations unless you try it out! Some you’ll want to throw out and some you’ll know you just might have something! Just have fun in the kitchen!

ToastIng the matzah farfel and the nuts will enhance the flavor and the texture of the Chocolate Matzah.
Thanks so much for these! Love finding new desserts!
These look cool. Can’t wait to try.

Thanks so much, these all look great. I have a question:
For the CHOCOLATE MATZA, is it 2 packages of semi sweet chocolate chips – EACH OR TOTAL OF 12 oz?
Can’t wait to try!
Hi there- I just made the 4 ingredient miracle bar- LOVE IT!!!!! I am not cook or a baker and need precise directions- I was wondering if there was any way to cut down on the sugar- being GF and dairy free- I can see myself eating them all of the time and a cup of sugar and a cup of chocolate chips regularly will not be a very good thing-
Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing these recipes! They look terrific.
if I make these in advance, do any of these recipes they freeze well?
All the recipes sound yummy! Can’t wait to try. Happy Passover to all!
[…] year I wrote a Passover recipe blog that received such rave reviews I figured why not try one for 2015. Since I am constantly […]
thanks for posting. recipes look great.
is the matzoh recipe 12ox total of choc chips?
I am a nut allergic and will omit all nut products. These look easy with no matzoh product to up set the stomach anymore.
I am also wondering for the chocolate matzoh is it 2 bags 12 ounces each of chocolate chips or 12 ounces in total?
Please let me know asap. Want to make these tonight. Sounds yummy!!
All 3 recipes do. Will make all for my seder
Lovely post! I am going to make the 4-ingredient Miracle Bar for our Seder. Looks scrumptious; thank you so much.
Thank you so much!!! For those not ok with peanuts, omit them. My son has a severe peanut allergy…omitting nuts is a no brainier! Come up with your own substitution…I’m sure you have before??
Thankyou! Just made the choc almond and coconut cookies – they are delicious and so easy to make. I used castor sugar because we don’t have KLP powdered sugar here and I put 2 cups instead of 3. I think next time I’d even reduce it further to 1 1/2 cups of sugar.

HI…Do you need to grease the pan before you put in the ingredients. Looking forward to trying this recipe.
Made some of your miracle bars can’t stop eating them so easy to make. Fantastic
Thank you so much for the wonderful miracle bar recipe—FYI, I doubled the recipe and the bars came out much thicker—crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I will definitely be adding this to my Passover menu every year!
Loved these recipes. Seem easy
