Print Friendly and PDF
A great little dessert cake, with the wonderful flavor of root beer in both the cake and the frosting. Your family will love it!

Cake

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2/3 cup root beer

Frosting

1/4 cup butter, softened
2 cups confectioner's sugar
2 tbsp milk
approx 1/3 cup rootbeer
* 1/2 tsp root beer extract if desired

Mix all ingredients for the cake together in one bowl until smooth. Pour into a prepared 8x8 baking pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and an inserted toothpick in the center comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool before frosting.

To make the frosting: cream together the butter, milk and icing sugar. Add enough root beer to the desired consistency.  If you want a deeper root beer flavor, add root beer extract.
