Time 1h25m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
2 cups fresh rhubarb, chopped
1 (19 ounce) box French vanilla cake mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F (325F for dark non-stick pans). Melt butter in rectangular pan, 9 x 13 inches in oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter.
  • Arrange strawberries and rhubarb on brown sugar evenly. Press them into the brown sugar gently.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat cake mix with water, oil and eggs until smooth. Pour batter over strawberries and rhubarb.
  • Bake for 45 to 55 minutes or until toothpick is inserted in center and comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and immediately run a knife around the sides of the pan to loosen the cake. CAREFYLLY, turn pan upside down onto a heatproof serving plate. Leave pan over cake for 1 minute so the brown sugar topping can drizzle over the cake.
  • Cool for 30 minutes. Serve warm or cool with a dolup of whipped cream on top. Store loosely covered.
