Mocha Matzoh Napoleon

By Paula Shoyer

3.8

The matzoh layers are soaked in coffee and though softened, they dry out when chilled and hold the dessert together. The first version of the recipe was made in a loaf pan and served ten but I quickly realized that on Passover, the crowds are bigger. To serve ten, just halve the recipe and prepare in a 12-inch loaf pan.

Storage:

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to three days or in the freezer for up to two months.
