Easy Root Beer Float Cake recipe is like a sweet, nostalgic trip down memory lane in dessert form. The creamy frosting, resembling the frothy head of a classic float, adds a luscious touch to this delightful treat. It's a perfect way to relish the classic root beer float flavors in a cake that's simply irresistible.
Mix the cake batter until it's well combined and smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared 9x13" cake pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Let cake cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 packets of Dream Whip with 1 cup of root beer, and vanilla or root beer extract. Beat until it becomes light, fluffy, and has soft peaks (about 4-5 minutes).
