  1. My family really enjoyed this moist, delicious coffee cake. It certainly didn’t last long! Easy to prepare and well worth it!!

  2. I made this cake several times this summer, and it was a hit everywhere I took it. It is wonderful!! I served it with Cool Whip, nice added touch.

  3. I had it today at my book club, and it was fabulous. I plan to make it this weekend for my family.

  4. I found this recipe to be quick and easy. I baked it for a retirement luncheon at work and it was devoured. Lots of requests for the recipe. This recipe is definitely a recipe box keeper.

  5. I’m always looking for rhubarb recipes. I have a nice patch of it growing at the back of my vegetable garden. This recipe was so nice and moist and did add extra rhubarb and cinnamon. Gave some to our elderly neighbors and they just raved over it. Will be making this many times this summer/nice and light dessert. I get the best recipes from this site!

    1. I’ve been baking for a number of yrs. and nuts can simply be eliminated without trying to put anything in their place….raisins would be nice tho.

  6. I have frozen Rhubarb on hand. Can frozen be used if defrosted and the water squeezrd out?
    Thank you

  7. Always been a favorite of our family. We were given the recipe by an elderly Maine woman who had shared with many others. Certainly a keeper.

    1. Try googling gardening questions or stop by a nursery. I live in N. Central Ma. zone 5 and mine are typically 10-11 in. long. I’ve never heard of a dwarf rhubarb but maybe you have one?? I’m assuming that it’s getting full sun.
