2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1 cup root beer
2 sticks of margarine
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows (optional)
Recipe
Mix flour and sugar. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup root beer and two sticks of margarine, bring to a boil and add to the flour/sugar mixture. Stir well. Add in 1/2 cup milk, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and two eggs. Blend well. If desired, stir in 1 1/2 cups of miniature marshmallows. Bake in a 9x12 pan at 325F for 30 minutes.
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/8 teaspoon of salt
2 cups confectioner's sugar
4 tablespoons cream or milk
1 teaspoon root beer extract (or 1 tablespoon of root beer from the can)
Work the butter and salt with a spoon or electric beater until fluffy and creamy. Add in confectioner's sugar and cream (or milk), continuing to stir or beat. Add only enough cream or milk to achieve spreading consistency. Add vanilla and spread over cake - and stand by for the applause!
