    Royal Inspiration: From Brooklyn Furniture to Swedish Princess Cookies!

    This week on Cookie Lab, prepare for a tale of transatlantic inspiration and delicious ingenuity! Chris stumbled upon the muse for this week's bake in the most unexpected of places: a Brooklyn furniture store with a surprisingly tempting cafe! There, he encountered a cookie that whispered of the legendary Swedish Princess Cake, and a culinary quest was born.

    Unable to find a recipe fit for royalty (or at least, fit for Jill's discerning palate!), Chris took matters into his own hands and concocted his own magnificent version of the Swedish Princess Cookie. Get ready for layers of delicate goodness and a flavor that will transport you straight to a Scandinavian fairytale!

    But we're not just sharing Chris's triumph. We'll also be diving into the rich history of the elegant Swedish Princess Cake, uncovering its regal origins and iconic marzipan crown. And for all you baking science buffs, we'll be demystifying the art of creating the perfect, luscious crème pâtissière – the creamy heart of this decadent cookie.

    Tune in to hear the charming story, learn how to bake these majestic treats, and master the science of the creamiest filling imaginable! Get ready to feel like cookie royalty!
