"The first time I followed the instructions and it was ok but I cut the rhubarb into pieces that were too small so they practically dissolved when cooked. The second time I not only increased the size of the pieces but I increased the amount to two cups. Much, much better. The third time - I rocked it by adding somewhere between 3/4 and a cup of chopped walnuts. Awesome!" — sdwnewkitchen

"Very good rhubarb dessert, especially topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream! A half cup less sugar and a half cup more rhubarb was all I did differently; otherwise, followed recipe exactly." — CHARMICHEAL.

Editors' note: For a visual twist, we cut about 1 lb. 4 oz. fresh rhubarb into 2-inch matchsticks to scatter over the top before baking.

"This recipe is very forgiving. I had to substitute grape juice for cranberry juice because it's all I had. I added a handful of cranberries to the sugar-juice syrup. It was a nice addition." — Nancy

"I'm a firm believer that the world needs more rhubarb cocktails," Nicholio says. "The triple sec can overwhelm the drink, but the rhubarb flavor really shined through when we traded the triple sec for another tablespoon of rhubarb syrup and garnished with an orange peel twist. If you like it a little less sweet, try adding a dash or two of Angostura orange bitters. The syrup is great over ice cream and pancakes as well."

"One of the wonderful things about spring is fresh rhubarb, and I have been stewing it for a long time. I have never added cinnamon or fresh cut-up strawberries (as one of the other reviewers suggested), and I thought both added to the flavor," Barb A. says.
