Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). In 13x9-inch pan, melt butter in oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter. Arrange strawberries on brown sugar; sprinkle evenly with rhubarb. Press strawberries and rhubarb gently into brown sugar.
  • 2 In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, oil and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, then on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter over strawberries and rhubarb.
  • 3 Bake 46 to 52 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Immediately run knife around sides of pan to loosen cake. Place heatproof serving plate upside down on pan; turn plate and pan over. Leave pan over cake 1 minute so brown sugar topping can drizzle over cake. Cool 30 minutes. Serve warm or cool with whipped cream. Store covered in refrigerator.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If fresh rhubarb is out of season, use frozen rhubarb. Just thaw and drain it before making the cake.

This was one of the easiest and best cakes I've ever made! Not too heavy, cake was light and fluffy and the fruit stayed flavorful and delicious. A dollop of whipped cream finished it off nicely! Will most definately make this again!!

This was good, only changes I made was to divide everything into two 9" round cake pans and substitute white sugar for the brown because I was concerned that the brown sugar would overwhelm the fruit.
