  1. Loved your recipe, will definately make again. The only thing I did different was I cooked the filling for 60 mins. instead of 40 mins. and I used 2% milk, ordinary cream cheese and whipped topping. Taste great.
     
  2. This is excellent! I made this for a family reunion and it was snarfed up before I could grab a camera. I'm not a rhubarb lover by any means, but I even loved this! I did add about 6 freshly mashed strawberries to the rhubarb mix to give it a boost of color and flavor, but it would've been enjoyed without. This goes to the top of the list for my next rhubarb dessert. (36 servings?? no way!)
     
  3. I have always had rhubarb growing in the garden and have always given it away , but that ends today. this is absolutely the best desert I have had in forever !!!! a must try .
     
  4. Bet you can't eat just one piece! Very good. I will be adding this to my list of rhubarb recipes. There's always room (and more than enough rhubarb) for another rhubarb recipe. Thanks.
     
  5. It was easy to make. It wasn't very pretty or appetizing to look at(no color), but everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. Thanks for sharing.
