Steps:
- Place the matzo crackers on a greased jellyroll pan, to cover the entire bottom.
- Bring butter and brown sugar to a boil, boil for three minutes. Pour the mixture over the crackers. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 15 minutes. Remove, sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top. Wait five minutes, then spread the melted chips over the crackers. Sprinkle toasted almonds over the crackers, chill. Break apart, and enjoy!
- You can adapt this with saltines, simply cover the pan with them. I have to say, I couldn't believe how good they were, and I'm not a sugary treat kind of girl!
BUCKEYES I
This recipe is so good that I double it whenever I make it. Since it is peanut butter balls dipped in chocolate it is almost like candy. Real buckeyes are nuts that grow on trees and are related to the horse chestnut.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, butter, vanilla and confectioners' sugar. The dough will look dry. Roll into 1 inch balls and place on a waxed paper-lined cookie sheet.
- Press a toothpick into the top of each ball (to be used later as the handle for dipping) and chill in freezer until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler or in a bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until smooth.
- Dip frozen peanut butter balls in chocolate holding onto the toothpick. Leave a small portion of peanut butter showing at the top to make them look like Buckeyes. Put back on the cookie sheet and refrigerate until serving.

Steps:
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl; whisk until well combined.
- Place butter and brown sugar in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg whites and vanilla extract, and beat for 1 more minute. Gradually add flour mixture to the bowl and mix until completely combined. Fold in pecans and toffee bits until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Move the bowl to the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Scoop dough into heaping tablespoon-sized balls with a spoon or cookie scoop. Place dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet and flatten just slightly with the palm of your hand.
- Bake in the preheated oven until edges are set and lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:
- Use a food processor to finely chop the toffee bits. This will help to distribute them evenly throughout the buckeyes.
- If the peanut butter mixture is too thick to roll, add a little bit of milk or cream until it reaches the desired consistency.
- Roll the buckeyes in melted chocolate chips immediately after dipping them in the peanut butter mixture. This will help the chocolate to set quickly and prevent it from smudging.
- Place the buckeyes on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the chocolate to set completely.

Crunchy toffee buckeyes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion.
