Ingredient List
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
- 1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 3 eggs, separated
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour

- 2 1/2 cups cut-up rhubarb
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup flaked coconut
Preparation
- Heat oven to 350°F. Mix butter, 1 cup flour and 1 tablespoon sugar. Press evenly in ungreased square pan, 9x9x2 inches. Bake 10 minutes.
- Mix egg yolks, 1 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, the salt and half-and-half in large bowl. Stir in rhubarb. Pour over hot crust. Bake 45 minutes.
- Beat egg whites in medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until foamy. Beat in 1/3 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time; continue beating until stiff and glossy (do not underbeat).

Tips
- You can substitute 2 1/2 cups of frozen unsweetened rhubarb, thawed and well drained, for the fresh rhubarb.
