A backyard rhubarb patch provides tangy stalks that Carol uses in the same mouthwatering way her mother did. "I can whip up the sauce for Rhubard Sundaes in just 4 minutes while the chicken is broiling." she shares. It's fun to fix when unexpected guests drop by and also delicious served over pound cake. I freeze extra rhubarb I've picked so we can enjoy this treat anytime we like throughout the year."—Carol Bushell, Holyrood, Ontario

Tip

Save Crumbs for Topping Ice Cream

“Don’t discard cookie or cereal crumbs,” advises Marie R. of Bensenville, Illinois. “Use them to top pudding, gelatin and ice cream.”

This is a very sweet tasting topping. At first I served it warm because I could not wait to try it - but it melted the ice cream!! If you try this recipe (which is good if you like rhubarb) I would recommend making it early and chilling it.
