Root Beer Float Ice Cream Cupcakes

Our family LOVES root beer, so I thought a perfect combination for dessert would be root beer float cupcakes. Rich root beer cupcakes, topped with a creamy, icy root beer sherbet!
ingredients:
root beer cupcakes (Baked recipe, here)
root beer sherbet (recipe, here)
whipped cream

First, I used Baked’s recipe for Root Beer Bundt Cake, BUT made them into cupcakes. I only made 12 cupcakes (half the recipe) and with the rest of the batter…

I made a just made a small cake for munching. Yum.

After the cupcakes have cooled, scoop out the sherbet onto each cupcake, then top it off with whipped cream.
The Baked recipe was a bit too heavy for my taste, so the root beer sherbet turned out to be the perfect pairing to counter it. This is the perfect ice cream cupcake combo!


Wow! and you made the sherbet too?! I am inviting myself over – but then, I would have to lose a few pounds
Yummy! I can’t wait to make this bundt. And my ice cream maker is on its way to me. Yippee. Love those cute bowls too!
