We Tried 9 Levain Cookie Recipes | The Pancake Princess

[@QuickQuix]

You are such an asset to all bakers, Pancake Princess! I am in awe of your dedication, attention to detail, skill and talent, and just plain hard work! Thank you so much.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

That is so kind of you to say, thank YOU so much!!

[@azayn2434]

Thank you for this video! There are so many copycat Levain recipes floating around that I didn’t know where to begin. You did a great job of breaking down the differences between all of these recipes.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much for the kind words, I'm glad it was helpful!!

[@rachaelpetrie9298]

This is the best review of Levain cookie recipes out there! Thank you! I love the article on your blog, too. So happy for your success.

[@yanqinli9940]

Girl your channel is gonna BLOW UP. So neat, so informative. Just purely awesome.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much!!! Your encouragement means so much

[@omaryousef7616]

I've never been more happy to hit subscribe! This is exactly the type of the content I've been imagining from you, 11/10 great job!!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Could I imagine a more supportive group of bake off fans?? I think not! Thank you SO much Omar!!

[@Panda-ds2es]

After actually viewing, I think the background music is too loud. I would also like the name of the recipe source on the corner of the screen as erika’s talking about them since for easy reference! Otherwise, awesome video and I hope to see more in the near future :)

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Love the feedback, thank you!! Will definitely turn the music down next time and great point about the recipe source!

[@mwhitlow25]

Thanks for all of your hard work. Your blog/channel and content are such great inspiration for anyone who loves to bake! I l'm always on the quest for the "best" version of any favorite dessert, and get so excited when you post a new bake-off. It is becoming a tradition to test every bake-off "winner." Excited to see the tres leches bake-off soon!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much!!! This comment made my day--I hope you've enjoyed all the winners so far!

[@Cleareye]

Excellent presentation. I appreciate that your hand gestures were subtle and not distracting as they are in so many videos these days,

[@kagagnonful]

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Yessss!! Sounds like a fabulous snow day plan

[@Joanne-ve6id]

I have been trying different copycat levain cookies recipes from Korean youtubers for the past few days, this video definitely save me the trouble from doing all the trial and error when I try western KZbinrs next :) This came at a perfect time with a great description of the cookies you baked! I'm loving it! :D

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Oooh so interesting--I haven't ventured into non-western recipes as of yet! Would love to hear if you had any smashing successes with the Korean youtuber recipes!

[@riyaneziane8830]

I've also looked into korean youtubers take on the levain cookies, which ones have been your fav so far?

[@hibashamim3979]

Omggg you are amazing. I was looking for good recipe everywhere. Thank you for summarizing

[@certainromance24]

Omg!! I'm so happy you have a youtube channel now ❤❤❤ Congrats and good luck!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much!!

[@sukoonshergill4851]

Yayayay !!!! I’m so glad you’re starting a you tube channel !!!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you so much!!

[@lisbethsanchezlimonta3722]

Amo tu trabajo total inspiracion 💜

[@duffchick58]

2 quetions. 1) How do you feel about these cookies after they've cooled? The gooey shots when its straight from the oven are great but do they lose their appeal and flavor after that? 2) how long do you think these will last in a ziplock bag? Im making a carepackage to send in the mail and am on the hunt for some a cookie recipe that'll still hold up after the trip. Thoughts?

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Hi! I feel these cookies are still good at room temp but of course at maximum deliciousness when warm. The great news is that they reheat beautifully (like better than normal thinner cookies imo)--it's pretty easy to get that gooey center back from the microwave. I think they'd last in an airtight ziplock bag for maybe 3-4 days? Again, I think they're great reheated so just make sure the recipient gets that memo!

[@bevngai3919]

YAYYYY BEYOND EXCITED TO SEE YOU VENTURE KZbin!!!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you Bev!!!

[@elletamashiro2642]

Aloha! I was wondering what brand of chocolate chips did you use for modern honey cookies? Thank you!

[@ashleyigo2122]

This is very important work that needs to be done. Thank you for doing your part to move America in the right direction 🍪🍪😂

[@aldenboon2399]

Love it! Was going to try Cupcake by Gemma (my sis made it and it was delicious) but am excited to try your recommendations of the two bakers.

[@BobBob-yd2ub]

Which recipe did you find better?

[@sophiebamford6611]

I’d been wondering where the day after breakdown had gone! Can’t wait to see which is the overall winner, wish peanut butter chips were easier to get hold of in the UK

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Ahh thank you Sophie!! I'm excited to post the results and wish I could mail you some chips!

[@Anna-sq6uh]

SO EXCITED! I love your content. Also, what Dutch process cocoa powder is best?

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you Anna!! I love using Valrhona cocoa though I've also used and loved Cacao Barry's extra brute cocoa. For a budget/easy-to find-option, Hershey's Special Dark works and is what I used to test these recipes!

[@Sunny-in-Tucson]

Thanks, I subscribed. I have seen all these videos. Please do a comparison of 9 Lemon Bar recipes, there are so many out there.

[@gummydogs]

OMG the production value and editing. The intro was like Alex French Guy level eye candy. That's an auto subscribe from me.

[@lorrainelai1603]

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Here is my review of choc chip Levain cookies! Unfortunately this was before I started KZbin! www.thepancakeprincess.com/2020/09/16/best-copycat-levain-cookie-recipe/

[@lorrainelai1603]

@@erikathepancakeprincess great!! I'm reading it now

Thank You so much!!! Super video and beautiful girl!

[@pyteo]

Wow! I really enjoyed this video, thank you so much! TikTok lead me here! Hitting the subscribe button!

[@Goez1988]

That was what I’ve waited for 😍

[@kswong2065]

Can I use levain cookies recipe and just add on marshmallow when making smores cookies?

[@aongv]

It takes all of me to bake one type of cookie in a day. You’re baking 9-12? I couldn’t imagine! 😅

[@katrinlausch3078]

Joshua's recipe is also great

[@alixmartinez3553]

Hi, the quality and subject of the video is awesome the only "pb" is the music, I can’t really hear what your saying…BUT what your saying is very interesting so it’s the 3rd times that I’m watching it in a quiet place this time!😁

[@selinayuen4990]

I love your bake offs on KZbin! Can you redo all of them and post here?

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Haha I'll do my best for all the future bake offs!!

[@PratikshasWonderland]

[@patremagilbert8787]

Yummy

[@Panda-ds2es]

Never subscribed faster!!!

[@lucaschen782]

YAY ERIKA!!!

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

LOVE YOU LUCAS!!!

[@elezavala]

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!

[@aj_8713]

Why not compare with Delish cookies too? ❤️

[@clarissetan]

Great job, but i am surprise that you did not try out de la serna and Joshua Weissman's recipe since these videos have the highest view count on KZbin.

[@anjudevera58]

FINALLYYYY ✨

[@cutiepawsa876]

Oh my God the music in the video is so loud, it’s really really hard to hear your voice through it. It was difficult to hear the video not to mention get interested in it even though it was interesting, and the music is so boring, at least if you’re gonna have music make it interesting, or let it play when you’re not speaking

[@waposekadin5139]

You have a great review or the recipe but the background music is a little to loud sometimes I need to rewind so I could understand you. And I hope you will include to your video or in your direction below the brands of ingredients you use mostly the cocoa powder, peanut butter chips etc. But I love the video you are honest it's very informative. I hope you will more videos like this 😊😊 😊😊

[@sawmiller]

More of these types of videos, please. Sub'd and liked.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thank you thank you! More videos coming soon!

[@TheDangerzhao]

"(finger guns) DONNN'T put that in"

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

As soon as I said that, they were like "we're gonna put that in"

[@yenegh]

This was such a good video...unfortunately the background music was so loud it was so hard to hear you .. Thanks anyway

[@WendyT1103]

I don’t think The Domestic Rebel didn’t refrigerate the cookies long enough.

[@that_crazyone9047]

What is recipient of egg in this video

[@Reudiga]

I tried these but mine goes very flat and big instead of height :(

[@sarahr4204]

I almost cried when u showed this on your Instagram 😭🥰

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Hahaha thank you for watching!!

[@strivingslave5962]

Cake by Courtney Bountiful Kitchen

[@elezavala]

You should try the Mike Bakes chocolate levain cookie recipe! mikebakesnyc.com/levain-bakery-dark-chocolate-peanut-butter-chip-cookies/ its my favorite

[@themutt5310]

bread flour is the secret

[@Nancy-hf6cm]

The loudness of the music really made it hard to hear what you had to say.

[@hibashamim3979]

Please compase Joshua's recipe too

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

So this blogger already compared Joshua's recipe and found it was not very close to the original which is why I didn't include it in my bake off! www.hiimadethis.com/levain-bakery-copycat-recipe-showdown/

[@darshbakshi95]

The background music is too loud

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Noted for the next video!

[@iggyreilly2463]

Music is too loud, distracting.

[@pomchinrose]

Is your vlog about cookies or is it about your background music ?

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

I'll let you be the judge, but the background music volume has been lowered for future videos :)

[@billpearce9784]

Nice video, very informative, which I appreciate, but, BUT, please either turn the volume of the music WAY down or even better, NO MUSIC! Those watching your type of video will be primarily interested in learning INFORMATION, they are not interested in being forced to hear YOUR choice of music.

[@erikathepancakeprincess]

Thanks for the comment, Bill. This was my first ever KZbin video, so the production quality wasn't quite optimal as you can tell...but hopefully you'll find the music level acceptable in my other videos.

[@cristinadedios7429]

The content is very good but you talk too fast! 😅

[@mantisbiker2537]

You said you were going to make 9 recipes but you didn't make any!

[@kianabastillas3721]

Bruh the recipe are on the channel what you mean? This is a taste test of those recipes

[@cristinadedios7429]

Can u slow down when talking ! are u in a rush--
