Ingredients
For the cake layer you will need: 1/2 cup butter, softened; 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour; 2 teaspoons baking powder; 1/4 teaspoon salt; 1/2 cup white sugar; 2 eggs; and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. For the pudding layer you will need: 1/2 cup white sugar; 1/2 cup all-purpose flour; 1/4 teaspoon salt; 2 cups milk; 2 tablespoons butter; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; and 1 egg. To top the cake you will need: 1 cup fresh rhubarb, diced; 1/3 cup white sugar; and 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour.
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8-inch square baking pan. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and 1/2 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Gradually stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture until just blended. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. In a medium saucepan, stir together the 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup flour, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Gradually stir in the milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Reduce heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract. Beat one egg in a small bowl and stir in a small amount of the hot mixture. Pour egg mixture back into the saucepan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour pudding over the cake layer in the pan. In a small bowl, mix together the diced rhubarb, 1/3 cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon flour. Sprinkle rhubarb mixture over the pudding layer. Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool before serving.
