Well, I was invited to Easter Dinner today (they are Eastern Orthodox
Christian) and I offered to bring dessert. I heard they love rhubarb, so I decided to Google for Barb's Rhubarb custard cake recipe. I found it yesterday morning, have been corresponding with her about it, and I made it this morning. While it was in the oven, I decided to Google RFC and read the reviews of this cake. I remembered they were raves, and I read a few yesterday when I found the recipe. Well, for some reason, this morning when I did my search, the first recipe that came up was the one where Barb stated she originally posted an incorrect amount of sugar, it was really 1 cup of sugar, not two. Naturally, the first one I found yesterday, and therefore, the one I printed out to make this morning, called for TWO CUPS of sugar. Now, I have to say, as I was making this cake, I looked at one cup of sugar and it seemed like enough, but then again, what do I know? I've never cooked rhubarb before, so instead of following my instinct, I followed the recipe. Of course, every single recipe I pulled up this morning (once the damn thing was in the oven) called for 1 cup sugar. And I can't find the one with 2 cups online, just to prove I'm not imagining things. Anyway, there's nothing to be done now, I really wish I had noticed two different recipes yesterday, but the bottom line is: Has anyone made this thing with 2 cups of sugar? And how was it if you did? Or should I just dump this in the garbage and run over to the market and pick up a Mrs Smiths pie and call it a day? So much for "tried and true". I shoulda made the f%$&ing pie recipe from Everyday Food. |
