A neighbor shared this recipe with me, and I created my own variation using garden-fresh rhubarb and strawberries. The shortbread crust and creamy sweet-tart layers went over big at a family party-not a crumb was left! -Sara Zignego, Hartford, Wisconsin

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB CREAM DESSERT

I found this recipe in an old Taste of Home magazine. I don't recall who submitted the recipe, but I tried it today, and it was delicious. I did make a 2 changes.....I added a little more sugar when I cooked the rhubarb along with a few drops of red food coloring to make it "prettier". I also used Cool Whip instead of whipping my own cream. I especially love the first layer (crust) which I could have eaten all alone !!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries and rhubarb. This will ensure the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the rhubarb. It should be tender but still have a little bit of bite.
