Rhubarb Berry Coffee Cake
I rely on a cake mix to speed the prep for this moist streusel-topped dessert that pairs tart rhubarb with sweet strawberries. It's great all by itself, but feel free to add some frosting or ice cream. —Jackie Heyer, Cushing, Iowa

This recipe was just ok. I used a lemon cake mix which I wish I had not. I like lemon but didn't realize how much it would overpower the fruit. The crumble mixture on top was did not really go with the cake, especially if you try the lemon flavor. I won't make this again. I will save my rhubarb for pie.
My new favorite dessert! Made exactly as directed with garden fresh rhubarb and strawberries...perfection! No frosting or ice cream needed and even better the second day!
Last reviewer - 2 cups all purpose flour, 1-1/2 cups sugar, 1 tbsp baking powder, 1/2 cup powdered milk. This recipe sounds really good and I have lots of rhubarb, so i'll be trying this.
I really hate to used cake mixes....does anyone know how to make this from scratch? We LOVE rhubarb and strawberries, so I'm dying try this recipe!
This will be a keeper recipe. I used a lemon cake mix like one of the other reviews and it was delicious. Give it a try!
Served with Cool Whip. Very good recipe. Others asking for it.
Excellent coffee cake. I added some cinnamon to the topping, yummy.
Delicious and relatively easy to make. I agree with the submitter that although the frosting would be a pretty finishing touch, it is not necessary and would make an already very sweet cake too sweet.
This is wonderful! I only had a lemon cake mix, so I used that and it was delicious. My husband wouldn't even let me get the frosting on it before eating several helpings!
Loved how easy and delicious this was for the first rhubarb of the season!
