Cafe Valley Root Beer Float Cake

Finally a root beer float without all the cold and liquid. Man, what a hassle. I had never heard of these before, but my coworkers insisted they were a thing and sure enough, a quick search on the internet found me dozens of recipes. Where have I been that I never heard it?

Is it a regional thing?

This cake was moist, delicious, and didn't send me out to the store looking for root beer extract. The root beer flavor compliments the icing nicely. It really does taste like a float. Probably shouldn't toss it in a glass though.

Kind of pretty, right? If only there was some way to keep the carbonation.
