We loved these! They were delicious when they were still slightly warm. Definitely better the first day, but there wasn't much left to refrigerate. I was a bit worried when I saw how powdery the crust ingredients were when patting them into the pan, but it baked up nicely. I will be making this every year during rhubarb season!

These turned out really good. I sprinkled powdered sugar on the top when they were cooling off. Also, I made these for Father's Day and my dad asked me to make them again for his birthday.
