Tips:
- To get the most tender and flavorful rhubarb, choose stalks that are bright red and firm. Avoid any stalks that are wilted or have brown spots.
- If you don't have any sour cream on hand, you can substitute plain yogurt or buttermilk.
- Be sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to create a smooth and even cake batter.
- Don't overmix the cake batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the cake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- For a creamier frosting, beat the butter and cream cheese together until light and fluffy. Then, gradually add the powdered sugar until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
- If you don't have any fresh rhubarb on hand, you can use frozen rhubarb instead. Just be sure to thaw the rhubarb completely before using it.
