2 tablespoons margarine, melted
Crumble macaroons and mix with margarine. Press into bottom of tart pan. Refrigerate while you make the filling.

Filling:
1-3/4 cups pareve whip
1 pound semisweet chocolate, broken into pieces
2 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon vanilla

Heat whip and chocolate over low heat, stirring until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. Stir in egg yolks and vanilla and mix well. Cook over low heat until thick. Pour into the crust and chill for at least 4 hours. (I frequently keep in the freezer until about 1/2 hour before serving)

1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon dried dill

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the potatoes lengthwise into wedges and bake for 45 minutes or until tender. Drizzle the potatoes with the melted margarine. Dust with the garlic salt and dried dill and roast for 10 -15 minutes more (or until a little browned and crispy).

Snapper Fillets in Pistachio-Matza Crust

Macaroonies

Double Chocolate Mocha Drop Cookies

½ cup shelled unsalted pistachios
2 tablespoons unsalted margarine or butter, plus additional for the pan
½ cup Streit’s Matza Meal
Salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons grated onion
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest or 1 ½ teaspoons of prepared white horseradish, drained
1 ¾ – 2 pounds red snapper fillets or other non-oily white-flesh fish fillets

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread the pistachios on a foil lined baking sheet and toast until fragrant, approximately 8-10 minutes. Toast the matza meal at the same time. Melt the margarine or butter in a small baking dish in the oven, then add the matza meal to it and season it with salt and pepper. Stir well. Bake for 10 minutes.

Remove the pistachios from the oven and let cool slightly. Chop the nuts coarsely. Combine the pistachios with the toasted matza meal. Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees.

In small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, onion, lemon zest, and/or the horseradish. Lightly grease a baking pan large enough to accommodate the fish fillets in one layer. Sprinkle the fish on both sides with salt and pepper and place in the prepared pan. Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the fish and top with the pistachio-matza crumbs. Bake just until he fish is opaque throughout, 10 -15 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
