RHUBARB CUSTARD CAKE

Rhubarb Custard Cake image

Rhubarb thrives in my northern garden and is one of the few crops the pesky moose don't bother! Of all the desserts I've tried, this rhubarb custard cake is my first choice. It has old-fashioned appeal but is so simple to prepare. -Evelyn Gebhardt, Kasilof, Alaska
