Today I made rhubarb custard cake.
1 yellow cake mix--make as directed
Put batter in a 9x13 pan
Sprinkle 4 cups chopped rhubarb on top of batter
Sprinkle 1 cup sugar on top of batter/rhubarb
Pour 1 cup heavy cream over top
Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes
Serve each piece upside down in bowl and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
The custard forms while baking and is sooooo good warm with the ice cream. I does not last very long around here.

I stewed rhubarb in the crock pot last week!
Wash and chop and put in the crock.
On high .... only a couple of hours. (variable to size of crock and amount of rhubarb!)
After stir in jello powder, and sweeten to taste.
Recipe had said to add 1/4 cup water for 4 cups. Next time I'll probably only wash the rhubarb and let that be the moisture.
The extra water created too much liquid, so I scooped some of it off and kept in a jar ..... mix equal parts with ginger ale for a nice drink!

This is my favorite rhubarb recipe:
Fresh Rhubarb Cake
1 beaten egg
1 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon baking soda
1-1/2 cups flour
dash salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups chopped raw rhubarb
Mix all together. Top with 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup chopped nuts.
Bake at 350 degrees for 1/2 hour.
Serve with whipped cream.
Note:
This recipe came from a newspaper shortly after we moved into our first house... we had a huge yard and along the whole back there were rhubarb plants... at least 30 of them... the previous owners made rhubarb wine... we never knew what to do with it all... but gave tons away... my husband would be out every morning getting some to take to work and hand out... and he dug up plants for people that wanted some for their yards... it almost always grew back.
I "only" have 8 plants here... but still give a lot away. I plan on trying some of the other delicious sounding recipes that others have posted too.
