  1. Okay, I must admit, I used this recipe as a basis for what turned out to be a fantastic alteration. I used the amount of rhubarb called for and sprinkled it with the 3/4 cup of sugar. I eliminated the gelatin, then stirred 1 cup water into a BUTTER PECAN cake mix (yes, you heard me right!). I poured this over the rhubarb and then melted a stick of butter and poured it over all. Baked it, then ate it. It is DELICIOUS!
     
  2. Hubby says he would eat it again. Extremely easy to make. I followed the recipe except for I only had 3 cups of rhubarb. Worked out okay but I would mix the cake mix with the water and then dump it over the rhubarb mixture so that there wouldn't be dry lumps. Turns out more like a cobbler than a cake. Thanks.
     
  3. I wasn't able to find fresh rhubarb so I have used a frozen one, that's why I have reduced the amount of water as it says in the recipe note. Came out very yummy!
     
  4. Love this dessert - I have made this dozens of times with the yellow cake mix it is delicious. I tried making a variation on it using Duncan Hines Strawberry Supreme cake mix and Strawberry-Banana flavor jello. Came out VERY good!
