Ingredients

all-purpose flour for dusting

Cake:

1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle root beer
3 large eggs
¼ cup vegetable oil

Glaze:

½ cup confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons root beer

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan.
Make cake: Stir together cake mix, root beer, eggs, and oil in a large bowl until smooth. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of cake comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Allow cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Make glaze: Whisk together confectioners' sugar and root beer in a small bowl until smooth.
Use a skewer to poke holes in cooled cake at 2 inch intervals. Pour glaze evenly over cake.
