There are no cooking directions but I usually put it in a 350 degree oven and just watch it until the cake looks done. Contributed by Stacey McDowell Dietiker. Another of my grandmother's recipes. She had a patch of rhubarb in the garden in back of the house. I grew up eating it raw and in everything from cobbler to cake. |
