BIG RAY'S CHERRY RHUBARB COFFEE BARS



Big Ray's Cherry Rhubarb Coffee Bars image

Mom gave me the original recipe which is kind of a cross between a coffee cake and dessert bar, using a strawberry-rhubarb combination, but I changed it to one with cherry, which I think gives it a richer flavor.

Provided by bfr610

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Cherry Dessert Recipes

Time 1h20m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 cups chopped rhubarb
2 tablespoons lemon juice

½ teaspoon salt
1 cup cold butter, cubed
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup cold butter, cubed

Steps:

  • Combine rhubarb and lemon juice in a large saucepan over medium-low heat; cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes.
  • Mix 1 cup sugar and cornstarch together in a bowl; stir into rhubarb mixture. Cook and stir until rhubarb mixture is thickened and bubbling, about 5 minutes. Stir in pie filling; remove from heat and cool filling, about 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • For a sweeter cake, use a sweeter variety of cherries, such as Bing or Rainier cherries. If using sour cherries, you may want to add an extra 1/2 cup of sugar to the batter.
  • To make sure the cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If it comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake for a few more minutes.
  • Let the cake cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will allow the cake to set and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the cake with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh fruit.
