Carol Gallagher, a missionary in Paupa, New Guinea asked our Test Kitchen to lighten up this favorite. Cream was replaced with 2% milk, orange marmalade was substituted for three of the original's egg yolks, and the sugar was reduced. The resulting makeover recipe has half the total fat and 60% less saturated fat.--Taste of Home's Test Kitchen

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh rhubarb. If you don't have fresh rhubarb, you can use frozen rhubarb, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- To make sure the shortcakes are light and fluffy, be sure to use cold butter and buttermilk. You can also freeze the butter and buttermilk for 30 minutes before using.
- Don't overmix the shortcake batter. Overmixing will make the shortcakes tough.
- Bake the shortcakes until they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the shortcakes cool completely before serving. This will help them hold their shape.
- Serve the shortcakes with whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries.
