Spring has Sprung!

Finally a nice warm day today! I checked my rhubarb and it’s sprouting through the good earth! I have some in the freezer from last year, so I am going to make these rhubarb cream cheese bars later this week. My friend Anita Galkin brought them as a birthday treat to our exercise group and they were a real hit. Everyone wanted the recipe so I told them I would share it in “What’s Cooking.” I hope you enjoy them too!

Crust:
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup butter
 
Rhubarb Layer:
2 cups chopped rhubarb, if frozen measure while frozen, thaw and drain
1/2 cup sugar
2 Tbsp flour
 
Cream Cheese Filling:
2 (8 oz.) packages cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs

    I'm Kathy Lloyd. I grew up on a farm near Elmore, MN and have lived in Fairmont for over 44 years. I have always loved to cook, even when I was very young. I loved to stay with my Aunt Dorothy during my childhood. She was a great cook and used to give me freedom in the kitchen, teaching me along the way. She made recipes from our Norwegian heritage, along with pies, homemade doughnuts, yeast bread and cinnamon rolls. 

    Marrying a husband with a hearty appetite and raising 3 sons and 1 daughter gave me plenty of hungry appetites to satisfy! I worked as a nurse for 42 years and have been retired for 11 years. Even though I loved my work, I love having time to spend with my grandchildren, to experiment with new recipes and work with my flowers in the summer. Life has been very good to me, blessing me with my loving family and great friends!

    I enjoy sharing my love of cooking and recipes with the readers of the Photo Press! (I have had my share of cooking failures over the years!)
