Ingredients:

• 500g biscuits (any plain biscuits like graham crackers or digestive biscuits)
• 4 eggs
• 330g sugar
• 115g dark chocolate (or milk chocolate if preferred)
• 2 1/2 tbsp rum
• 3-5 tbsp instant coffee (adjust according to preference)
• 3 tbsp coconut oil or fat

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chocolate Mixture:

   • In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until they become foamy and pale in color.

2. Add Flavorings:

   • Sift the cocoa powder through a sieve to remove any lumps, then add it to the egg and sugar mixture.
   • Stir in the rum and instant coffee. Adjust the amount of coffee to suit your taste preferences.

3. Melt the Coconut Fat:

   • In a small saucepan, melt the coconut oil or fat over low heat until it becomes liquid. Be careful not to let it brown.

4. Incorporate the Coconut Fat:

   • Gradually pour the melted coconut fat into the egg mixture, stirring continuously until well combined. This will create a smooth and glossy chocolate filling.

5. Layering:

   • Line a baking pan or mold with parchment paper for easy removal later.
   • Start by spreading a thin layer of the chocolate mixture on the bottom of the pan.
   • Place a single layer of biscuits on top of the chocolate mixture, covering it completely.
   • Continue alternating between layers of biscuits and chocolate mixture until you reach the desired height, ensuring that the topmost layer and the sides are covered with chocolate.

6. Chill:

   • Place the assembled Kalter Hund in the refrigerator to set for at least 2-3 days. This chilling time allows the flavors to meld together and the biscuits to soften slightly, creating a deliciously indulgent treat.

7. Serve:

   • Once fully chilled and set, remove the Kalter Hund from the refrigerator and carefully lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper.
   • Cut into slices or squares and serve chilled. Enjoy this classic German dessert with friends and family!
