Cold as Kraut is a similie and is comparing one thing to another. This particular similie means that you are as cold as a german. This is said because Kraut is what the English used to call Germans in world war two and it basically means that you are as cold hearted as a Nazi or a Kraut.
As it was explained to me years ago by an elderly gentleman, "cold as Kraut" meant cold as saurkraut. Before the days of refrigeration, saurkraut was stored in large stone vats underground. And they got very very cold.
