I have been wanting to make root beer cookies for such a long time and finally I made them!! My local cake shop was always out of root beer extract so I didn’t want to make any cookies until I had root beer extract.

Who would have thought adding soda to cookies would make them taste AMAZING!! If you are a fan of cookies, this is definitely a must try because these cookies were soft and chewy and it actually reminded me of Mrs. Fields Cookies! You only need 6 tablespoons so just purchase the small bottle, I purchased 1 liter of root beer and now it’s sitting on my table. My family and I don’t drink soda, so I’m going to have to bring it to work or school.
If you guys try this recipe, let me know how it turns out!!

Hey,
Just wanted to ask, how many pieces of cookies does your root beer cookies recipe makes?
Hope to hear from you soon as I would love to give it a try and make for about 120 cookies.
Thanks!
Hi Marissa,
This recipe only makes about 35 bite sized cookies. 🙂
Hey, I think there’s a typo.. We supposed to used 1/2 a teaspoons of baking soda, not 12, rights? I wonder why my cookies ended left so much bitter after taste.. T__T
Hi Ivan, I apologize!! :/ There was supposed to be a / between the 1 and 2. However these cookies are super delicious if you are willing to try it again. Again, I am so sorry!
Could you use root beer concentrate instead of extract or the soda? If so, how much would I add of the concentrate? Thanks in advance!
Hi I’ve never tried concentrated root beer! so if you try it you need to put half because it is concentrated lol (:
I made them for my husband’s church yesterday. They had root beer floats and I thought they would go perfect. I think they went over well. I will make them again. Maybe cut down on the sugar just a little.
