  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream or 490g milk of choice... I used evaporated milk... 245g
Steps

  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F
  3. Prepare cake batter according to box instructions or this easy blender scratch recipe...

  8. Place cake in preheated oven (350°) and bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
  9. Wonderful served warm from the oven, or refrigerated so the custard sets up firmer.

Notes
  • To make individual cakes in 12 x 250g jars...
  • 75g cake batter
  • 29g rhubarb
  • 16g sugar
  • 40g milk and bake for just 25 minutes.
  • Rich, moist, and a wonderful creamy custard layer on the bottom that creates itself almost like magic!!
  • Don't over bake this one to keep that custard layer from getting completely absorbed into the cake
  • Can also be made with cranberries. If using frozen fruit double the cooking time.
  • NB. Smaller amounts for 8x8 pan
