  3. In a small bowl, combine sugar, milk, melted butter, lemon juice, and vanilla. Stir in the egg.

  5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients and stir with a spoon until well combined.

Notes

  • Mixing the rhubarb with the flour first ensures it doesn’t sink to the bottom of the cake. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature.
  • Leftover cake can be kept for up to 3 days at room temperature in a covered container. 
  • Freeze portions by wrapping in plastic wrap and storing in zippered bags for up to 10 weeks. Thaw at room temperature.
