"Rhubarb is usually served in the spring however, I like to have some in the freezer and surprise my family with its bright flavor in the winter. This cake is DH's great Auntie Grace's recipe which she first made for me at the baby shower for my oldest son. It's delicious!"

not enough for the size of pan. I found another recipe, exactly the same except all ingredients were doubled. Rhubarb quantity remained the same and cooking time was 50 minutes
