Recipes Made with Cake Mixes

Root Beer Float Cake

I received this cake recipe from my Mother many years ago, and she no longer remembers where she got it! Once someone has tasted this, they keep requesting it over and over, no matter the occasion.

Root Beer Float Cake is perfection when served with vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients

Cake

  • 1 (18.25 ounce) box white cake mix*
  • 1 (12 ounce) can root beer (I prefer A & W)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 3 tablespoons root beer

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour** a 10-inch Bundt pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine cake mix, can of root beer, oil and eggs until smooth.
  3. Pour into prepared pan.
  4. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Test for doneness.
  5. Cool for 15 minutes; then turn out onto rack to cool completely.
  6. Meanwhile prepare the glaze. Mix the powdered sugar with the 3 tablespoons of root beer until smooth.
  7. Poke holes with a skewer or wooden pick at 2-inch intervals and pour glaze over cake.

Notes

* 18.25 ounce boxes of cake mix have been replaced by 16.5 ounce and 15.25 ounce boxes. To compensate for the volume loss in a 16 ounce box, whisk 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour into the dry cake mix before proceeding with the recipe. To compensate for the volume loss in a 15.25 ounce box, add 1/2 cup + 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder.
