Rhubarb Cake with Icing
When I opened the vanilla they got me I was overcome with the smell of REAL vanilla! I was shocked by how fragrant it was! I called a friend of mine right away to ask if she knew of this phenomenon and she’s been using it for years already. How am I just now finding out about this?!
If you aren’t using Mexican vanilla, I highly recommend switching! It is a game changer for flavor!
Once that smell consumes your kitchen, you are going to want to bake so make sure you try making Rhubarb Dream Bars , Rhubarb Cake with Butter Sauce , Rhubarb Streusel Cake with Warm Vanilla Sauce , and this Rhubarb Cake with it!

1/2 cup Walnuts
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
