For our family Thanksgiving meal at my mom’s house I am bringing a Root Beer Float Cake. I made this a few weeks ago for our harvest meal at church and it was a huge hit! My sister saw my picture on Facebook and asked me to bring it for Thanksgiving, so I am. My friend, Kim saw my Pinterest Pin of this recipe on Facebook and she made it for her family too. They loved it so much it became the “recipe of the day” on TheJoyFM Morning Cruise, where her husband and my son work!
