This is a recipe that was in my Grandmother's personal recipe collection. It translates from German to Cold Dog. It is very delicious layered cake that is kept in the refrigerator. Try it with chocolate wafers instead of butter cookies. Make sure you have a glass of milk ready with this dessert! This recipe contains raw eggs. We recommend that pregnant women, young children, the elderly and the infirm do not consume raw eggs. For more information visit our Hints and Tips pages.

A German chocolate cookie cake served with a cup of coffee. Great for dessert. Hey, it's chocolate. It's great anytime. The secret ingredient is the Palmin which is coconut fat. You can get it at a European Deli or buy it online. Google Palmin Coconut Fat in your search engine or try germandeli.com in Texas or scanspecialties.com in Seattle. You can substitute 3 sticks of butter, so I'm told. I haven't tried that yet. I make mine for the Christmas holidays. You don't have to worry about leftovers. This stuff magically disappears. Remember to leave some on a plate for Santa.
