How to Make Amish Gooey Rhubarb Rolls

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  3. Cut in 1 cup cold shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Stir in ¾ cup milk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine ½ cup granulated sugar, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to ¼ inch thickness.
  7. Spread softened ¼ cup butter evenly over the dough.
  8. Spread 2 cups chopped rhubarb over the buttered dough.
  9. Sprinkle evenly with the sugar-spice mixture.
  10. Tightly roll the dough into a log, like a jelly roll.
  11. Cut the roll into 1 ½ - 2 inch slices.
  12. In a medium saucepan, combine ½ cup hot water, 2 tablespoons butter, ¼ cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt.
  13. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil for 3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
  14. Remove from heat and set aside.
  15. Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  16. Arrange the dough slices in the prepared pan.
  17. Pour the sweet sauce evenly over the rolls.
  18. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
