Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Fresh Rhubarb (Chopped)
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar (Adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 cups Graham Cracker Crumbs (or crushed digestive biscuits)
  • 1/2 cup Butter (melted)
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese (Softened)
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 cup Whipped Topping (Homemade works best)
  • 1 package Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix
  • 1 cup Milk (Whole milk preferred)
  • to taste Fresh Mint Leaves
  • to taste Fresh Strawberries

Instructions

  1. Cook the Rhubarb Compote: In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, and water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the rhubarb softens (about 5 minutes).
  2. Thicken the Mixture: In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a few tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry. Slowly add this to the simmering rhubarb mixture, stirring continuously until it thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  3. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until well incorporated. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×9 inch pan or a similar dish to form the crust.
  4. Create the Cream Cheese Layer: In another mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy. Fold in the whipped topping gently until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  5. Make the Pudding Layer: In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and whole milk until it thickens (about 2 minutes). This will be your next delicious layer!
  6. Assemble the Layers: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust. Then, add the cooled rhubarb compote as the next layer. Top with the prepared vanilla pudding.
  7. Chill and Set: Cover the assembled dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until it’s completely set.
  8. Serve with a Fresh Touch: When ready to serve, garnish with fresh mint leaves and sliced strawberries for a burst of color and flavor.

Notes

Adjust sweetness of the rhubarb compote to your liking and consider using alternative crusts if graham crackers are unavailable.
