How to Make Rhubarb Cream Dessert

  1. Prepare the Rhubarb: In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups chopped rhubarb and ½ cup water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Simmer the Rhubarb: Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rhubarb is tender and easily breaks down with a fork.
  3. Make the Rhubarb Mixture: Remove from heat and stir in 1 (3 ounce) package of strawberry jello and ¾ cup granulated sugar until completely dissolved. Let cool slightly.
  4. Incorporate Ice Cream: Gently fold in 2 cups of vanilla ice cream. Work quickly to prevent the ice cream from melting too rapidly.
  5. Assemble Dessert: If using individual serving dishes, pour the rhubarb mixture into them. If using a pie shell, pour the mixture into a 9-inch baked pie shell.
  6. Chill and Set: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the dessert is completely set and firm.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of fresh mint (optional). Enjoy!
