Rhubarb Dum Dum

A delicate, delightful, and simple cake. Real comfort food! I make it when I am in a hurry (when company is coming or I am dying to have some dessert). This cake works really well with apples and berries, too! Enjoy warm with frozen yogurt.

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ cup milk
• ¾ cup white sugar
• 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup butter, softened
• 2 cups chopped rhubarb
• 1 pinch ground cinnamon, or more to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a deep pie dish.

Step 2

Place rhubarb into the bottom of the prepared pie dish and sprinkle with cinnamon. Mash the butter and sugar together in a bowl until the mixture is creamy and well blended; beat in eggs, milk, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth. In a separate bowl, stir the flour and baking powder together; gently stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture. Spread the resulting batter over the rhubarb in the pie dish.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is lightly browned and the rhubarb is bubbling, about 45 minutes. Serve warm.
