The Dakota has a secret Prince-themed dessert that's not on the menu
The Dakota has a secret Prince-themed dessert that's not on the menu originally appeared on Bring Me The News. There aren't really weeks where Prince isn't celebrated in the Twin Cities, but he's being celebrated with extra vigor this week between Celebration 2025, the new Purple Path, and other Prince-related events. While taking in a concert or watching Purple Rain, The Dakota has added an off-menu, Prince-themed treat. The concert venue where Prince often caught shows and played six back-to-back concerts in 2013 is serving Prince's Favorite Cookie (aka The PFC). However, you'll have to be in the know to order it, since it's not listed on the menu. The cookie was reputedly a treat Prince often ordered when catching live music at the Dakota. It's described as a "crispy-on-the-outside, chewy-on-the-inside" cookie with white chocolate and macadamia nuts, finished with a bit of lime and sea salt. Throughout 2025, the PFC will be baked up in a limited quantity by Executive Chef Asher Zulkosky, reviving the original treat created by former pastry chef Katie Elsing from 2012 to 2015. "Prince was always coming in with his entourage," Elsing recalls. "As soon as word came down he was expected, I knew to have a batch of these cookies ready for him and his guests just in case he had a craving for something sweet." The PFC's return is well-timed with Prince's June 7 birthday and the Celebration 2025 events in Downtown Minneapolis, but it's also part of the venue's 40th anniversary celebration. Throughout the Dakota's 40th anniversary year, the culinary team will revive dishes from the Dakota's history as a nod to past chefs such as Ken Goff and Jack Riebel, reminding concertgoers that the Nicollet Mall venue isn't just known for what's happening on the story was originally reported by Bring Me The News on Jun 6, 2025, where it first appeared.
