A delicious, old fashioned pudding cake with a crunchy top and creamy fruit bottom.
There’s something about home-grown fruits and veggies that make food extra special. We don’t have a garden right now, but we do have a very faithful rhubarb plant. I appreciate every rhubarb dessert my husband bakes, knowing the fruit was grown by us. 🙂
This pudding cake layered with rhubarb on the bottom and a delicious creme brulee topping reminds me of summers gone by. It’s a simple dessert, nothing too, too fancy, but stick-to-your-ribs delicious.
That’s my kind of dessert. 😉
I showed a picture of it on Instagram this week and promised I’d share the recipe on here! I know how much you all absolutely love our Chocolate Rhubarb Brownies and I’m telling you, you’ll love these just as much! Sooo good!
