- Rhubarb Cake with Butter Sauce
- Ingredients:
- For the Cake:
- 2 cups rhubarb, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- For the Butter Sauce:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the flour mixture.
- Gently fold in the chopped rhubarb. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool slightly while you prepare the butter sauce.
- For the butter sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the powdered sugar and milk, whisking until smooth and creamy. Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract.
- Serve slices of warm rhubarb cake drizzled with the buttery sauce.
