This is excellent! I made this for a family reunion and it was snarfed up before I could grab a camera. I'm not a rhubarb lover by any means, but I even loved this! I did add about 6 freshly mashed strawberries to the rhubarb mix to give it a boost of color and flavor, but it would've been enjoyed without. This goes to the top of the list for my next rhubarb dessert. (36 servings?? no way!)
