How I love rhubarb!! I love being able to go out to the garden and pick it fresh. It makes me feel self-sufficient. A while ago we had some neighbors over for dinner. I decided that I would make this for dessert and our company couldn’t quit talking about this cake. Rhubarb Cobbler Cake is the perfect taste of summer to me.
Clean and dice some rhubarb into about 1/2 inch pieces.
Sprinkle with sugar and Jell-O.
Sprinkle marshmallows over Jell-O.
The oldest child (who once told me that he was the birthright child, which meant that he would be getting all of my earthly possessions when I died), made the cake for me.
Mix the cake batter according to package directions. Spread over the rhubarb and marshmallows.
Bake. I put aluminum foil over the cake for the last few minutes because it was getting too brown.
Cool. Serve with fresh whipped cream.

I looked at my rhubarb plant yesterday and can’t wait until it grows a little more! Then I can start cooking with it!
