How to Make Root Beer Float Cake W Root Beer Spiced Whipped Cream Frosting

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease the bottom of a 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) of your favorite chocolate cake mix, 1 cup water, 1/3 cup vegetable oil, and 3 large egg whites. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds with an electric mixer.
  3. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes.
  4. Reserve 1 cup of batter in a separate bowl.
  5. To the reserved batter, add 1 teaspoon ground allspice and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Stir to combine and set aside.
  6. Pour the remaining batter into the prepared pan.
  7. Drop spoonfuls (about 1 tablespoon each) of the reserved spiced batter evenly over the batter in the pan.
  8. Gently swirl the batters together using an 'S' shape with a knife or toothpick.
  9. Bake for 28-33 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool completely in the pan for at least 1 hour.
  11. While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting (see frosting recipe below).
  12. Once the cake is completely cool, frost the top with the root beer spiced whipped cream frosting.
  13. Just before serving, sprinkle each slice generously with crushed root beer candies.
