Once I tried these rich gooey bars, I just had to have the recipe so I could make them for my family and friends. The shortbread-like crust and rhubarb and custard layers inspire people to find rhubarb they can use to fix a batch for themselves. -Shari Roach, South Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Definately a keeper, not to sweet - just perfect. The texture was nice. My frosting was way runnier than what is pictured. I will decrease the whipping cream next time.

These are to die for. I sometimes use Cool whip for the frosting instead of heavy cream in hopes of cutting calories :) I dare not make them too often since I can't stop eating them. HEAVENLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These bars are delicious. Next time I make this I won't add the full cup of cream to the topping as I found it softer than what I would like.

I love this recipe, and I make it every spring, as soon as my rhubarb is ready to be picked. I added 2 cups of fresh sliced strawberries and an extra tablespoon of flour to the filling.
