This matzo house makes a wonderful addition to any Seder table.
Tools and Materials
6-by-6-by-6-inch cube cardboard box
Scissors or utility knife
Tape
Matzo
Melted chocolate
Kosher foods for decoration
Matzo House How-To
1. Begin by folding the cardboard box into the form of a house: trim 2 of the top flaps into triangles and tape the 2 uncut flaps onto it along the cut angles to create a support for the pitched roof.
2. Squeeze melted chocolate onto form. Tip: Keep melted chocolate liquefied by resting a container of it in warm water.
3. Attach pieces of matzo to chocolate-covered house form.
4. Decorate the matzo house with kosher food items of your choice, using the melted chocolate to attach the decorations to the house.

Special thanks to Yehuda Matzo and Kedem Food Products for giving a box of matzo to our studio audience.
I am going to echo the comments below! I am planning my seder already - in February, and templates and pictures would be nice. I have ages from 5 to 85 and this craft would be fun for all.
Would love to have a template for Passover 2009. It would look beautiful as a centerpiece on my table or dessert table.
I was shocked to not find a photo or template here too! Would the info on the "Winter Village" be something we could use for this, or when should we check back again, to find the template for this? Thank you, Mrs. Karen M. Wallis - Oceanside, CA.
Is there a template????? I thought Martha said it would be on the website??
Fabulous show with Joan and Arthur as guests! Hey! I can't find an image of the matzo house? Thanks again for a great show!
