My great-aunt gave me this rhubarb cake recipe. It's especially delicious when rhubarb is in season, and tastes even better with the old-fashioned milk topping. But you'll love it even with frozen rhubarb and "modern-day" whipped topping! -Mairlyn Homola, Hazel, South Dakota

Steps:
- For the crumb topping: Combined the flour, brown sugar, oats, ginger, salt and nutmeg in a small bowl. Add the butter and mix thoroughly with your fingers or a fork until all the butter has been evenly distributed and incorporated into the flour. Form into small to medium clumps with your fingers. Set aside.
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8-inch square cake pan.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
- Beat the butter and granulated sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer (or using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment) on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low and mix the flour mixture in 3 parts, alternating with the Greek yogurt in 2 parts, beginning and ending with the flour and beating until just incorporated. Fold in the rhubarb using a rubber spatula. Take care not to overmix the batter.
- Spoon the batter (it will be thick) into the prepared pan and smooth with an offset spatula. Sprinkle on the crumb topping, distributing it evenly.
- Bake until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out with just a few moist crumbs, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack, about 1 hour.
Tips:
- Choose the right rhubarb: Look for rhubarb that is firm and has a deep red color. Avoid rhubarb that is wilted or has brown spots.
- Prepare the rhubarb properly: Wash the rhubarb thoroughly and cut it into 1-inch pieces. Remove any leaves or tough ends.
- Use a combination of sugars: This recipe uses both granulated sugar and brown sugar to create a complex flavor. You can also add a little honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 45-50 minutes. Don't overbake the cake, or it will be dry.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting set properly.
Conclusion:
This heavenly rhubarb cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The rhubarb gives the cake a tart and tangy flavor that is balanced out by the sweetness of the sugar and frosting. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
