butter, moisten with one beaten egg and sufficient milk added to make
a soft dough or batter. Drop tablespoons of this thick batter over top
of dish containing hot stewed rhubarb. Place at once in a hot oven,
bake quickly until crust is a light brown. Serve on individual dishes,

combined flavor of rhubarb and vanilla is delicious.

and easily prepared and well liked by many country folk in Bucks
County.
