Instructions

  1. 1 Bring the water to boil in a saucepan. Add the salt, oil and margarine. When it returns to a boil, gradually stir in the matzo meal, continuing to stir until the mixture becomes a solid lump. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
  2. 2 When the mixture is cool, stir in the eggs until a smooth texture is achieved. Let stand for 30 minutes. Form into four balls and place on a greased baking pan.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake the rolls for 30 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave the rolls inside for 10 minutes.

Instructions

  1. 1 In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and the sugar together. Add the oil. Mix in the cake meal and the cocoa.
  2. 2 Add nuts, or use the nuts as a topping. I put nuts on top rather than in this cake for two reasons. They make the top look good without having to frost it. Also, for those who don 1t or can 1t eat nuts, they are easily removed without having to search for them.
  3. 3 Pour batter into a greased 9 x 13 inch pan. Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for about 35 minutes. The secret to a moist brownie cake, Pesach or otherwise, is to underbake it. Check it at about 30 minutes.
