Arretje nof

Arretje nof is a traditional chocolate cake originating from the Netherlands. Interestingly, this chocolate cake needs no baking – all it needs is a few hours in the fridge. The cake is usually made with a combination of butter, cookies, dark chocolate, sugar, eggs, and cocoa powder.


The ingredients are simply melted into a sauce, mixed with the cookie pieces, and the mixture is then poured into a cake pan, flattened, and left in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. Once chilled and solid, the cake is cut into slices. It's especially popular during the festive Christmas season.
