Recipes from Grandma

I got this recipe from my husband’s cousin Donna, and it sounds so great!

1 box of white, yellow, strawberry, or lemon cake mix
1 cup sugar
4 cups cut up rhubarb
1 pint of whipping cream (not whipped)

Mix cake mix according to directions.

Mix sugar in with rhubarb.

Put cake in greased pan, sprinkle rhubarb on top, and pour 1 pint (2 cups) of whipping cream over all.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes -1 hour and 30 minutes. Usually 1 hour and 20 minutes is long enough.

Let cool.

Keep in fridge.

Top with cool whip or a scoop of ice cream.

Variation: use strawberries or raspberries instead of rhubarb
