Root beer float mug cake

Traditionally brewed from sarsaparilla or sassafras roots, today's root beer is an amalgam of dozens of flavors, including vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, molasses, licorice, fenugreek, and hops. For authenticity, top this one with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Preparation time : 10 mins
Makes : 2 Mug Cakes

Ingredients :

Unsalted butter, softened : 2 Tbsp
Egg : 1 large
Brown sugar : 2 Tbsp
Root beer : 3 Tbsp
Root beer extract or pure vanilla extract : 1/4 tsp
All purpose flour : 6 Tbsp ( 1/4 cup+2 Tbsp)
Baking soda : pinch
Kosher salt : pinch

Method :

In a large mug, whisk together the butter and sugars with a fork.
Stir in the egg, root beer, and extract.
Add the flour, spices, and salt.
Beat the batter until smooth.
Divide the batter between two mugs.
Microwave  separately for 11/2 to 2 1/2 minutes each until risen and firm.

Yummy mug cake is ready to serve.

Topping ideas : Vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or marsh mellow fluff.

Note : Root beer extract will really pump up the flavor of this cake. Larger supermarkets or confectionery stores often carry it, or it can be found on line.

Serve your cake hot with your choice of topping.
Enjoy your dish :)
