1. Rhubarb Cake

The first recipe I chose out of the box is the one that I saw first. I've made it before but never from the recipe card. Today's tasted better than ever before.

Mix together and let stand for 1 hour:

2 cups diced rhubarb

½ cup sugar

Mix together:

1 ½ cups sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp baking soda

2 cups flour

1 tsp salt

½ cup shortening

Add and mix well:

2 eggs

1 cup buttermilk (or sub 1 cup milk plus 1 Tbl lemon juice)

1 tsp vanilla

Rhubarb/sugar mixture

Pour into buttered 9 x 12 pan

Completely mix together into crumble:

½ cup sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

1 Tbl soft butter

Sprinkle over top of batter

Bake for 1 hour at 350

Oops!

I followed Grandma’s recipe exactly, except I used a smaller pan. Smaller pan was not a good idea!

I think next time I might make ½ recipe and still use the smaller pan. Or just use the size pan I was supposed to use in the first place.

But it was yummy. I think this time was the yummiest ever!
