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.

ROOT BEER FLOATS WITH HOMEMADE VANILLA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For the vanilla ice cream: Whisk the eggs in a large mixing bowl. Whisk in the cream and milk, a little at a time, until incorporated; then add the sugar, a little at a time, whisking until completely dissolved.
• Pour the mixture into a glass bowl set over a pot of simmering water and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 40 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Let the ice cream base cool completely before adding it to an electric ice cream maker. Freeze according to manufacturer's instructions.
• For the root beer float: In a frosty mug, add 2 large scoops of the vanilla ice cream, then top off with root beer. Repeat with the remaining ice cream and root beer. Serve with large straws and spoons.
