I have The Joy of Rhubarb cookbook. It has many good recipes and is available on Amazon for $9.87. If you Google "rhubarb cookbooks" you'll find several. Not the same as recipes from folks here, but if you have lots of rhubarb, you might be okay with the investment. I love looking at cookbooks, but don't USE them, if you catch my drift. LOL

put 3 to 4 cups cut-up rhubarb in unbaked pie shell--sprinkle about 1/4th cup sugar over top--then sprinkle a small 3ounce size pkg of DRY strawberry or raspberry jello over top. Make crumb topping of 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup melted butter and spread over top of filling. Bake about 45 min at 350 degrees. Is really juicy so use a pie saver pan under the pie when baking. Delish!!!!

My father-in-laws female friend used to make a rhubarb cake and we have moved, plus she passed away several years ago, as did my father-in-law. I cannot find that cake recipe - it was great. Does anyone have it?

I have a recipe for Strawberry Rhubarb Jam that is very good and so easy..

5 cups chopped Rhubarb, 2-1/2 cups sugar (I use half sugar half Splenda).
Bring to a boil, cook until pieces have softened.
Add one 3 oz box of Strawberry Jello
Cook 3 minutes on slow boil, stirring a little.

Sterilize small jelly jars and lids. Put jam in jars and tighten cap,
turn upside down for a while to keep tops hot, then turn upright
until tops snap.

I have made double recipe, since the original one only makes
about 3-4 small jelly jars... Good way to use up all of that Rhubarb
and tastes so good.

This is a really good coffee cake type of cake, not sure it is what you want but it is worth trying. Another of my favs.
Lunar Rhubarb Cake
This is from Canadian Living Magazine about 20 years ago

½ cup butter
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 cup buttermilk
2 cups (or a bit more) rhubarb, fresh or frozen
1 tbsp flour

Cream butter and sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Sift together the flour, soda and salt. Add alternately to creamed mixture with the buttermilk. Make 3 dry and 2 liquid additions. Toss rhubarb with the 1 tbsp flour and add to mixture. Pour into a greased 9 x 13 pan.

Topping:
¼ cup butter
2 tsp cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar
Mix together and sprinkle on top of the batter. When it bakes, some of the topping will sink in and make craters- like on the moon I guess.
Bake at 350* for 45 minutes.

Do you need to add anything to the cakemix or just spread it over the rhubarb dry?

I add rhubarb to my peach pies. Gives them a nice tang. I add a few cinnamoon candy hearts also.
