Dolores's Rhubarb Cake

Here is a rendition of Dolores’s Rhubarb Cake by Jane Brody from the Good Food Cook Book.  This is a super moist low-rise cake that reminds me a little of cheese cake with out the cheese.  Jane Brody made changes to the original recipe to increase the nutrient value and decrease the sugar and calories in the original recipe.  I have made some additional changes (noted) keeping up with the times.
