Go to Recipe

Pastry chef Nicole Plue, of Julia's Kitchen at Copia in Napa Valley, was intrigued by a recipe she discovered for matzo covered in toffee and chocolate. But she knew she could improve it by using crackers instead of matzo for a hit of salt. Now the saltines, slathered with buttery toffee and bittersweet chocolate, are a favorite on her petit four tray.

Atkins now makes the cake for her son, who never has to wait for his piece.
