I'm a big fan of pudding cakes, and a lover of rhubarb, so clearly, making this recipe was a must. Fantastic flavour. I didn't have any lemons, so used a lime in its place. I even liked the raisins in it. As like M&Mers, I too doubled the sauce. :) Most recipes never have enough. Since I'm the only one that likes rhubarb, I'm going to freeze individual portions to be enjoyed later. I'll let you know how that works out. This is going to be a "must make" every Spring. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful recipe. UPDATE June 12/09: Tried it from frozen. Nuked individual serving size for 4 minutes on high. :) This is truly an amazing dessert. This *will* be made every year. Might even give it a try using frozen rhubarb and Splenda. If I do, I'll update again.

Excellent pud! Followed the recipe including adding golden raisins, and it was a complete success. I definately made a good choice for the first rhubarb of the season! Thanks!

This is delicious! I made this tonight for dessert with some of the last rhubarb from out of our garden and was very pleased with how it turned out. Moist, delicous, with a lovely sweet and tangy flavour. I used raisins as we happen to love them in my household. Served it with some nice vanilla ice cream. Thanks for a great recipe!

Since we grow it, I've tried a lot of new rhubarb recipes this season & this one ranks right up there with the best. It was good warm with ice cream & the next day at room temperature. Next time, I'll probably double the gross raisins!! Thanx M&Mers!

Oh YUMMY !!!!! This is much like a bread pudding and I LOVE bread pudding desserts. So easy to make, not too sweet but sweet enough, goes well with ice cream, of course, and a pleasing lemony taste. (and I like the raisins in it!) Thanks for this recipe!
