Ingredients
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 120 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 3 whole Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 180 grams Matzo cake meal
- 60 grams Potato starch
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 150 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 100 grams Chopped nuts (optional, e.g., almonds or walnuts)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, sift together the matzo cake meal, potato starch, cocoa powder, and salt.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring with a spoon or spatula until a sticky dough forms.
Step 5
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using), ensuring they are evenly distributed in the dough.
Step 6
Divide the dough in half and shape each portion into a flat log, approximately 2 inches wide and 12 inches long, directly on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the logs are firm to the touch and slightly golden around the edges.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the logs cool for 10 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
Step 9
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the logs diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices.
Step 10
Place the slices cut-side down back onto the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Flip the slices over and bake for another 10 minutes until they are crisp and dry.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and allow the mandelbrot to cool completely before serving or storing in an airtight container.
