Root Beer Float Cupcakes

 

Ingredients

• 1 Cup Rootbeer Soda (non-diet)
• 1 Teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
• 3/4 Cup Sugar
• 1/3 Cup Canola Oil (Didn’t have canola I used corn oil)
• 1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 2 Teaspoons Root Beer Extract *(if you use root beer concentrate then only use 1/2 teaspoon)(Candy’s Note: I did not follow this for me it wasn’t enough I used nearly 3 TSP)
• 1 1/3 Cups Flour
• 3/4 Teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
• Pinch of Salt

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350
2. Combine root beer soda and vinegar and let stand for a few minutes.
3. Add in the sugar and oil, whisking until slightly frothy.
4. Mix in your extracts, and slowly add the flour, along with the baking powder, baking soda, and salt.  Careful not to over mix.
5. Fill cupcake liners approximately 3/4 full.
6. (At first I thought I had a lot more batter than 12 cupcakes, but then I noticed the batter would settle, so I went back and added a little batter to each liner, which made 12 cupcakes)
7. Bake for about 18 – 22 minutes.
