Rhubarb Coffee Cake Recipe
A delicious springtime dessert that's perfect for any occasion!
It's officially springtime in Minnesota! The rhubarb is here!
Us Minnesotans can't get enough of rhubarb this time of year, so I will be posting a few new rhubarb recipes within the next couple weeks!
We just got home from a wonderful 3 day weekend in Mankato at my sister's house!
It was their city wide garage sales, plus we made some great food and tried out some wine at Wine Cafe!
We tried out a bottle of Fox Run wine from Morgan Creek Vineyards, which tastes just like concord grapes! Delicious!
If you're in MN, check out your local liquor store and try it out!
Back to the recipe.... this rhubarb coffee cake is something fantastic!
The cake is moist, and the topping with nuts and brown sugar is wonderful. What makes it even better, is the homemade icing that tops it all off!
Make sure you have some friends or family around to help you eat this cake because it's so easy to want to devour it all yourself!
