I have had this recipe for 50 plus years and yes, it came from a recipe card that was in a pack of desert cards. We love it and try to have it when Rhubarb is in season. I just made it and was wondering if the biscuit part of the recipe could be tweaked and butter cut into the flour mix instead of oil. I have found the biscuit to be a bit dry. I would really need to know how much butter to put if the amount in the recipe is not enough. Anyone with any thoughts on this problem.Reply

My rhubarb-loving husband really liked this and said it had the perfect sweet/tart ratio. I had a few problems with the recipe: since I'm unable to buy frozen rhubarb around here, I used my own that I froze earlier this summer. I wasn't sure if I should weigh out 16 oz. or measure 2 cups. I ended up measuring 2 cups, but the fruity layer didn't seem very thick, so possibly a 16 oz. bag holds more than 2 cups. ??? Also, the batter mixture was so thick and dense that I needed to add another 1/4 cup milk to make it spoonable. Next time I'd add more rhubarb. MERP'd for Bargain Basement tag game.Reply
