I usually don't like rhubarb, but this recipe is excellent!
-
Finding rhubarb in my weekly farm share sent me searching the internet for recipes. Having never used rhurbarb before, I wasn't sure what to expect, but these were sensational. I put them out at a refreshment table at a local concert and received lots of compliments as well as several requests for the recipe. I used water in the icing as I didn't have juice and I also skipped the crystalized ginger.

Fantastic! I really enjoyed the tart taste of the rhubarb, however mine were not pretty looking they were definitely edible. My rhubarb just didn't look right. But it was still good. And the ginger icing is great and you have to use the oj, the oj gave it a really nice flavor to the whole thing. Thanks for a great one! Made for Fall PAC 2008. -
Unfortunately the crust was very hard on this...maybe I overcooked it a bit? Otherwise it was great (nothing beats rhubarb ;-))!!
