As the rhubarb in my garden continues to flourish (despite the fact that it is only mid-March), I was reminded that I still have a bit of rhubarb frozen in my freezer from last spring. Last night I decided to make my all-time favorite rhubarb dish with some of last spring’s left overs.
This is an old recipe of my mom’s. I believe it is adapted from a recipe taken from a church cookbook of some kind, and it is just the most yummy dish imaginable!
Rhubarb Squares
2 cups flour
1 cup butter (softened)
1/2 cup sugar
Blend well and press into an ungreased 9 X13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes.
2 eggs (beaten)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/2 salt
3-4 cups chopped rhubarb (depending on your love of rhubarb)
Once the crust is done baking, spoon this mixture on to the crust. Bake for another 35 -40 minutes.
This looks so yummy and so simple! Thanks for posting it.
You are very welcome! It is a VERY easy recipe!
I love rhubarb! My favorite is a rhubarb cream or custard pie that I’ve never quite been able to replicate (it gets brought to family reunions, and I have yet to track down who brings it 🙂 Your rhubarb squares look extremely tasty – hope you enjoyed them!
Happy spring!

Can’t wait to try it! Unfortunately I don’t have any leftovers in the freezer, but as soon as I get some fresh I will try your recipe. Thanks!
