DIRECTIONS
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Beat in egg. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating just until moistened. Fold in the rhubarb. Pour into a greased 9-in. square baking dish.
Combine topping ingredients; sprinkle over batter. Bake at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
For sauce, melt butter in a saucepan. Add sugar and milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in vanilla. Serve with cake.

The cake is outstanding. I can't rate the vanilla sauce because I used strawberries with syrup as the accompaniment, but I can only imagine how wonderful the vanilla sauce would be with it. The crumb topping on this cake is perfect against the light, moisture-filled texture of this cake. (I used 1 T. lemon juice in a cup of regular milk for my "buttermilk.")

This cake was incredibly awesome! It's so moist. I did use 4 cups of rhubarb as others suggested and it was just the right amount. I was worried about the crumb topping because it wasn't very crumbley but it turned out just right. My kids think I'm crazy but my goal is to try all of the rhubarb recipes on this site! I've been a little nostalgic lately remembering back to the days when we'd sit on grandmas back stoop with a big bowl of sugar and a fresh picked stalk of rhubarb. It was always a big deal to see who could find the one with the biggest leaf! Try this recipe; you'll be glad you did. Tried this one again with brown sugar instead of white for the topping. It was a hit with everyone at work, and I thought it was much better then white sugar.

This is an excellent cake!! Next time I will use 3 cups of rhubarb for extra rhubarb flavor. I also added a pinch of nutmeg. The cake is moist and dense, just the way I like it. The vanilla sauce works very well with this cake, but a little goes a long way.
