How to Make Rhubarb Delight

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and ½ cup milk. Stir this mixture into the crumb mixture until just combined.
  4. Grease a 7x11 inch baking dish. Press half of the crumble mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the dish.
  5. Spread 4 cups chopped rhubarb evenly over the crust.
  6. Sprinkle 1 package (3 oz) strawberry jello over the rhubarb.
  7. Crumble the remaining crumble mixture evenly over the jello.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the rhubarb is bubbly. Let cool completely before serving.
