Ingredients

Before we begin, let's gather our ingredients. You'll need:

1 box of white cake mix
3 eggs
1/2 cup of vegetable oil
1 can of root beer

Instructions

Root Beer Float Cake - Maria's Mixing Recipe

Step 1: Prepare the Cake

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. In a large bowl, combine the root beer extract, cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and root beer. Mix until well combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes.

Step 2: Poke the Cake

Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes evenly across the surface of the cake. This will allow the glaze to soak in and create that signature poke cake texture.

Step 3: Prepare the Glaze

In a small bowl, whisk together the root beer extract and powdered sugar until smooth. Pour the glaze evenly over the cake, allowing it to soak into the holes.

Step 4: Prepare the Filling

In a medium bowl, combine the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk. Stir until the mixture begins to thicken. Gently fold in the cream soda until well combined. Spread the filling evenly over the cake, ensuring it fills the holes.
