It’s rhubarb time and one of our great customers, Jo Ann, shared this delicious cake recipe with me a week or so ago. I fixed it for Kenny tonight and he was impressed! It’s really a quick and easy cake to make, I think you will enjoy as well.
1 ½ c Brown sugar (packed)
½ c Shortening (I use butter) – softened
1 Egg
2 c Flour
1 tsp Baking soda
¼ tsp Salt
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 c Sour milk or buttermilk
1 ½ c Rhubarb (chopped) it takes 4-6 stalks depending on size
Cream sugar, shortening and egg together. Mix dry ingredients together in a separate bowl. Add dry ingredients alternately with liquid. Mix well. Fold in rhubarb. Pour into a greased and floured 9×13 inch pan. Top with a mixture of ½ c sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon and 3/4 c chopped nuts. Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
