ROOT BEER FLOAT ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Line a 9-inch cake pan with plastic wrap, allowing enough overhang to go over the sides of the pan. Remove the ice cream from the freezer and allow it to soften slightly. Spread the ice cream evenly in the prepared pan. Cover the top with plastic wrap and return to the freezer and freeze completely, at least 4 hours.
• In a saucepan, combine the root beer, cocoa powder and butter. Cook over medium heat until the butter is melted. Stir in the sugars and cook until dissolved. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Stir in the root beer extract.
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease 2 9-inch cake pans, line the bottoms with parchment paper or waxed paper, then grease the paper.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
• In another large bowl, slightly beat the eggs, then whisk in the root beer mixture. Gently fold in the flour mixture just until combined, being careful not to overbeat.
• Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared pans. Bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30-32 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes, then remove from the pans and remove the parchment paper. Allow to cool completely.
• Place the whipping cream in a large bowl and whip until slightly thickened. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue to whip until thick with stiff peaks.
• To assemble the cake, place one cake layer on a serving dish. Remove the ice cream layer from the freezer and remove the plastic wrap. Place the ice cream on top of the cake layer. Trim, if needed. Place the second cake layer on top of the ice cream. Frost the cake with the sweetened whipped cream. Garnish with grated chocolate, if desired.
• Freeze until ready to serve.

ROOT BEER FLOAT ICE CREAM CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Remove the vanilla ice cream from the freezer and allow it to soften at room temperature. Line a 9"x2" cake pan with plastic wrap, making sure that you have a fair amount of overhang. Using a spatula, carefully spread the ice cream so that you have a nice even layer. Cover and place in the freezer to firm up, about 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, in a saucepan set over medium heat, combine the cocoa powder, sugars, root beer and butter. Heat until the butter has melted. Remove from the heat and add the root beer extract. Allow to cool while preparing the remaining ingredients.
• Preheat your oven to 325°F. Line the bottoms of 2 9"x2" cake pans with parchment paper and then lightly coat with baking spray, set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine slightly warm butter mixture with the eggs. Mix until the eggs are incorporated. Gradually add the flour, salt and baking soda. The batter will look slightly lumpy but that's ok.
• Pour into the prepared pans and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 30 minutes, then remove them and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Whip the cream along with the powdered sugar, vanilla and salt until it is stiff.
• To assemble the cake, place one layer of chocolate cake onto a plate, cake stand, or cake round. Place the ice cream (with plastic wrap removed) onto the top of the cake. Place the other layer on top of the ice cream. Using a spatula, frost the top and sides of the cake with the whipped cream. Garnish with cherries and freeze until you're ready to eat it ?-This chocolate root beer cake is adapted from Baked: New Frontiers in Baking, inspired by Taste & Tell.

OLD FASHIONED ROOT BEER FLOAT CAKE

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.
