- In a large bowl, cream the butter with the remaining sugar using an electric mixer. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until smooth. At low speed, add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk. With a spatula, add the rhubarb and its juice. Stir to combine.
- Spoon into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Let cool. Remove from the pan and let completely cool on a wire rack.
