Every summer a kind soul gives us some rhubarb and we enjoy a pan of homemade strawberry-rhubarb crisp. It’s never occurred to me to buy any additional rhubarb, so I’ve never made anything else. So when we got a second batch from the CSA, I dug through my cookbooks to find something new to make.
I found this recipe for Vermont Rhubarb Cake in The American Country Inn and Bed & Breakfast Cookbook. My aunt gave us this cookbook as a wedding shower gift, and I’ve used it countless times over the years.
The cake was delicious, especially topped with a big dollop of fresh whipped cream.
