Rhubarb Meringue Dessert

By: Jessica Moch  
"I hear so many nice comments when I serve this special springtime dessert. I make it often when our abundant rhubarb is in its prime. It's just as homey as a rhubarb custard pie, but it easily serves a large group. --Jessica Moch Bismarck, North Dakota"

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 cup cold butter

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • MERINGUE:
  • 6 egg whites
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 3/4 cup sugar
