OLD FASHIONED ROOT BEER FLOAT CAKE



Old Fashioned Root Beer Float Cake image

Notes about the recipe: This was one of the cakes entered in the Whirlpool Unique Cake Contest I judged last year, kind of like the Pillsbury Bake Off. It was made by Jacquelyn Smola from Piedmont, OK and it was so fun and festive looking I really wanted to share it with you for a birthday party idea and make it for Gio this year. My absolute favorite drink is a root beer float so it was hard to not give this the first place prize. But there were other judges who kept me from tipping the scale right to root beer. A chocolate cake with toffee topping won first instead and the $10,000 prize, which she donated to Heifer International. And I got a new Whirlpool kitchen out of the deal! I've also had root beer cookies, brought to me by a baking fan in Rochester, New York.

Time 3h10m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup butter
2 cups granulated sugar
3 cups cake flour
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 teaspoons water
4 eggs
1 tablespoon root beer extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup milk
7 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 1/2 cups butter
3 to 5 tablespoons heavy cream
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
Equipment: 12 elbow straws and colored streamers

Steps:

  • Make the Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour 2 (9-inch) cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter; then add the sugar and continue mixing until light and fluffy.
  • Meanwhile, sift together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the water and eggs to the butter mixture until blended. Mix in the root beer extract and vanilla. Alternately add the flour mixture and milk to form a smooth batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake until just set, about 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool in pans for 5 minutes, and then invert onto cooling racks to cool completely before frosting.
  • Make the Frosting: In a standing mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the confectioners' sugar and butter. Mix on low speed until well blended; then increase speed to medium and beat for another 3 minutes. Add the cream and vanilla and continue to beat on medium speed for 1 minute more, adding more cream if needed to reach spreading consistency.
  • To decorate the cake: Place 1 cooled cake layer on a cake stand, frost the top surface, and chill for 15 minutes (or freeze 5 minutes). Place the second cake layer on top, inverting it to create a flat top, and push down on it slightly. Frost the sides and top with a thin layer of frosting to hold in any crumbs (called a crumb layer), and chill 30 minutes or freeze 15 minutes.
  • Apply a second layer of frosting to finish off the cake, swirling the frosting a bit. Place 12 elbow straws in the cake around the top, and place colored streamers around the edge of the cake flowing down to the base.

OLD FASHIONED ROOT BEER FLOAT CAKE



Old Fashioned Root Beer Float Cake image

Gale Gand and Jacquelyn Smola did this one their show Sweet Dreams. I've modified it a bit to suit our tastes but it went over well at a recent birthday party. Do not substitute root beer flavoring for the extract as it doesn't have the same concentrated flavor. Also, when I made this in a 9x13 pan it baked up very high so take that into consideration when you decide which pan(s) to use.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 15

CAKE
1 box white cake mix
3 eggs
1/2 c sour cream
1 c root beer
1 tsp root beer concentrate
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 c oil
ICING
3 Tbsp water
3 Tbsp white corn syrup
2/3 c sugar
2 egg whites
3/4 tsp root beer concentrate
1 tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and gather ingredients.
  • 2. Mix cake mix with 6 remaining ingredients.
  • 3. Pour into a greased and floured Bundt cake pan.
  • 4. Bake for 50 min.
  • 5. Let cool.
  • 6. FOR ICING: Bring water, white corn syrup, and sugar to a boil and cook until 235 or the sugar syrup threads. Begin to test the syrup at 225.
  • 7. Take a spoonful of the syrup and dip the spoon in a bowl of cold water. Tip the spoon to see if it releases a thin thread of syrup. If it threads, it's ready to take off the heat. If it drips instead of threading it needs to boil a little more. You want the sugar syrup to spin a 6-8 inch thread.
  • 8. As soon as the sugar syrup starts boiling, start beating egg whites on medium speed. When the syrup threads, remove it from the heat. Turn the mixer to high speed and pour a thin stream of the syrup into the beating egg whites.
  • 9. Beat continually until frosting is stiff and glossy. Add vanilla and root beer concentrate.
  • 10. Continue to beat until mixed well.
  • 11. Spread on cooled cake.

CAKE BATTER
2 c sugar
1 c butter
3 c cake flour
2 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3 1/2 tsp water
4 large eggs
1 1/2 Tbsp root beer extract
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 c milk
FROSTING
7 1/2 c powdered sugar
2 1/2 c butter
3-5 Tbsp heavy cream
1 1/2 Tbsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour two (9 inch cake pans). Line the bottom with parchment paper. Set to the side until needed.
  • 2. In large bowl: Cream together the sugar and butter beating until creamy and fluffy. Add extracts, the water and eggs and mix together on slow.
  • 3. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this to the butter mixture while alternating with the milk. When all ingredients are mixed together and a smooth batter is formed, divide the batter into the two prepared cake pans.
  • 4. Bake until cakes are set (about 35 minutes). Let cool about 8 minutes before inverting onto cooling racks. Totally cool cakes before frosting them.
  • 5. FROSTING: Mix together on low speed the powdered sugar and butter. Add the cream and extract, when blended, turn the speed up on the mixer to Medium-high for 4 minutes. (Add more cream if you need it to make frosting more spreadable.
  • 6. Frost the top of the first cake. Set the second cake on top of the frosted cake, press down gently. Frost the top and sides of the cake making pretty swirls in the frosting.
  • 7. *** A cute presentation for cupcakes is to make tall cupcakes, frost them with rounded mound of frosting, and decorate with a bendable straw poked into the cupcake so it looks like a root beer float.

I got this recipe from the Southern Living Magazine several years ago and made my own modifications. My mother, who HATED Root Beer, loved this cake and requested it many times before she found out what was in it. It takes you back to those hot summer nights at the drive in. I think Coke could be used with a vanilla cake mix and be just as yummy. Hope you like it and let me know what you think.
