Jaynee made this at my house- the first time she just followed the recipe (I don't think she really did the topping) then the next day she made it again, only usin g1/2 or 1/3 the sugar, and she added 1 cup of fresh grated coconut (we had just gotten 4 coconuts from our bountiful baskets...) That was also yummy. The kids don't like it quite as much, its not sweet, but that's what she was going for, you can put jam on it and it's not too sweet. :) I love rhubarb!!!
