This cake recipe with a rhubarb sauce (aka compote) was handed down to me from my grandmother and is one of my favorites — I used to help her pick the rhubarb.
Ingredients
- 8 stalks rhubarb , cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 3 appless - peeled , cored, and diced
- 0.5 cups white sugar
- 0.25 cups water
Instructions
-
1
Combine rhubarb, apples, 1/2 cup white sugar, and water together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook and stir rhubarb mixture until rhubarb is tender and compote thickened, about 10 minutes.
-
2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
-
3
Mix 2/3 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup margarine, egg, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; stir in milk. Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl; add to milk mixture until batter is just moistened, then pour into the prepared baking dish. Spoon enough compote over batter to create about a 1/2-inch-thick layer. Reserve any leftover compote for another use.
-
4
Stir oats, 1/2 cup margarine, 1/2 cup white sugar, and cinnamon together in a bowl until crumbly; sprinkle over compote layer.

5
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes.

Million Dollar Dip
Formerly known as 'Neiman Marcus dip,' this million dollar dip tastes just like it sounds. I've had more than a few cheesy dips in my day, but this is by far the richest and most delicious one yet! Served with crackers and garnished with green onions and bacon, this dip is sure to be a huge hit at your next party.
Carrot Cake Spread
This carrot cake spread is similar to a marmalade, full of spices and carrot bits. Spread on toast, top on oatmeal, or pair as a side on your next charcuterie board.
Dave's Coleslaw
This is a recipe I have worked on for a while and I think it is just about right. It goes well with just about anything from fried fish to hamburgers, and is to die for on a pulled pork sandwich. If you are going to use it with Q, reduce the amount of dressing you add to the cabbage so it's not too sloppy. For best results refrigerate over night to allow flavors to marry.
