BOX-MIX RHUBARB DUMP CAKE



Box-Mix Rhubarb Dump Cake image

This recipe is wonderful. Very fast and easy to mix up can also use frozen rhubarb. Serve it nice and warm with some ice-cream or cool whip. The marshmallows give the cake a nice golden brown. Preparation time does not include time to clean and dice rhubarb. I put 12 for serving size according to the box, but I am sure you can get more out of a 9x13 inch pan. The recipe is sweet so a smaller piece may be better. Enjoy!
