German Fridge Cake

---

A great recipe for kids and adults who are really kids at heart! So easy to make. I got this recipe from my german friend katja, who often brought it to a class we took together and made my lunch breaks very tasty indeed. I think you could sub shortening or butter for the coconut fat (palmin) she used but i have not tried it, having only made this while in germany.
