How to Make Rhubarb Pudding And Ice Cream Topping

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch, and water. Stir until the cornstarch is fully dissolved.
  2. Add the butter and bring the mixture to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. This is crucial to prevent lumps and ensure the pudding thickens properly.
  3. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 minute, continuing to stir constantly.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and red food coloring (if using).
  5. Pour the pudding into a bowl or individual serving dishes. Allow to cool completely, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
  7. Serve chilled as a pudding or topped with your favorite vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
