Ingredients

• 1 box of yellow cake mix
• 1 cup of root beer
• 1/2 cup of vegetable oil
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup of root beer
• 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened
• 4 cups of powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup of milk
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• Maraschino cherries, for garnish
• Root beer syrup, for drizzling

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, root beer, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and smooth.
3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. While the cake is baking, prepare the root beer syrup. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of root beer and powdered sugar. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens slightly, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
6. Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. In the meantime, prepare the frosting. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add in the milk and vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition, until the frosting reaches a spreadable consistency.
8. Once the cake has cooled completely, spread the frosting evenly over the top.
9. Drizzle the root beer syrup over the frosting, allowing it to drip down the sides of the cake.
10. Garnish with maraschino cherries and serve chilled. Enjoy the delicious flavors of a root beer float in cake form!
