Ingredients:

  • dough:
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup shortening
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • filling:
  • 1 cup sugar
  • syrup:
  • 1-1/2 cups water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • few drops red food coloring, optional
  • whipped cream , optional

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine egg and milk; add to crumb mixture, stirring just until moistened. Turn out onto a floured surface. Roll into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Brush dough with melted butter; sprinkle with sugar and top with rhubarb. Carefully roll up dough, jelly-roll style, starting with the shorter side. Cut into 1-in. slices. Reshape the slices as needed to form round pinwheels.
  2. Place in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. For syrup, bring water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan. Cook and stir until sugar has dissolved. Stir in food coloring if desired. Carefully pour hot syrup over pinwheels. Bake at 400° for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm with cream if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
