PASSOVER MACAROON BROWNIES

6 ounces semisweet chocolate
2 sticks unsalted margarine (or butter) at room temp., plus additional to grease pan
1 1/2 cups sugar (granulated or brown)
3 eggs
3/4 cup matzoh meal
1/4 potato starch
Pinch salt
1 1/2 cup coarsely chopped, lightly packed Passover macaroons.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat 9 inch. square pan with margarine.

Set small pan over barely simmering water, without letting the pan touch the water. Heat the chocolate and margarine in the same pan until melted. Stir to combine and set aside to cool to room temp.

Add the sugar, eggs, matzoh meal, potato starch and salt. Using a spoon, gently fold in the macaroon pieces. Pour into baking pan.

Bake for 40-50 minutes, until the top appears set, is dry to the touch and is beginning to take on a cracked appearance. Cool before cutting into squares. Makes approx. 24 brownies.
