Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350; butter a 13x9 pan.
• Cream butter with flours and sugar, spread in prepared pan, pressing into corners and bottom; bake for 5-10 minutes (it will get bubbly--sort of).
• While that is cooking, cut up the rhubarb.
• In a blender or a mixer bowl, beat eggs until foamy and fluffy, add sugar and continue mixing, then add other ingredients until thick and rich; set aside (rewhip right before pouring into pan with rhubarb).
• When crust is baked, spread rhubarb pieces evenly (press lightly into crust--lightly!); pour custard over rhubarb; return pan to the oven for 45 minutes (knife poked in middle comes out clean).
• While THAT is cooking, prepare meringue; beat eggs until forming soft (firm) peaks, adding sugar 2 teaspoons at a time, then salt and vanilla last, mixing until stiff.
• At end of baking time, remove pan from oven, turn heat up to 425; spread meringue over rhubarb/custard, smooth with a spoon into pretty swirls.
• Brown for five minutes; set the timer--it can burn very quickly!
• VARIATIONS: Skip the meringue and use whole eggs in the custard; switch out some of the rhubarb for strawberries or raspberries; use all white flour instead of wholewheat in the crust.

Steps:

• Sift the flour, kosher salt, baking powder and baking soda together in a large bowl.
• Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer (or using a stand mixer fitter with the paddle attachment) on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and yolk, then beat in the vanilla.
• Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the dry ingredients and beat until well combined, about 1 minute. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts, then fold in the rhubarb. Cover the bowl with a clean dish towel and refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with reusable nonstick mats (or parchment).
• Use a 1-ounce ice cream scoop to scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart (you should have about 10 cookies, roughly 1 1/2 ounces each, per baking sheet). Sprinkle the sea salt on top of the dough balls.
• Bake, rotating the baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cookies cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Store the cookies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Steps:

• Pour mixture over warm crust and bake for 35-40 minutes until wooden pick comes out clean.
• Cool on wire rack, can be served warm.
• Store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• For the rhubarb & custard swirl, put the rhubarb and sugar in a wide pan with 2 tbsp water (omit the water if using canned rhubarb). Cook over a medium heat, stirring frequently for about 10 mins, until the rhubarb breaks down and turns jammy. Add a few drops of food colouring if you want a pink rhubarb swirl, but the flavour will still be great if you're using green-tinged rhubarb. Leave to cool.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put the butter and both sugars into a pan and put over a low heat. Melt together until smooth and shiny, then remove from the heat, and leave to cool for 10 mins while you sieve the flour, custard powder and baking powder in a bowl. Butter a 20 x 30cm baking tin and line with baking parchment.
• Beat the eggs into the cooled sugar and butter mixture, then fold in the dry ingredients until you have a smooth batter. Stir in 150g of the chocolate chips and the vanilla. Pour into the brownie tin, then use a teaspoon to swirl rhubarb compote on top of the batter. Add dollops of the custard, then swirl a skewer or cocktail stick through the compote to create a marbled pattern.
• Bake for 35-40 mins until set and the edges are coming away from the sides of the tin, then leave in the tin to cool. Melt the remaining 100g chocolate in short blasts in the microwave or in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Use a spoon to drizzle the chocolate over the blondie in a zig-zag pattern. Cut into squares to serve. Will keep for three days in an airtight container, or freeze the squares individually.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350F degrees.
• In small bowl, combine all crust ingredients.
• Mix until crumbly.
• Press onto bottom of a 13 by 9 inch baking dish.

• With spoon, stir in rhubarb.
• Pour over hot crust and continue baking for 45-50 minutes or until filling is firm to the touch.
• Remove from oven and increase temperature to 400F degrees.
• In large bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
• Add salt and vanilla.
• Continue beating while gradually adding sugar.
• Beat until stiff peaks form.
• Spread over hot filling (being sure to seal around edges so meringue doesn't shrink as it cools).
• Continue baking for 6-8 minutes or until meringue is golden brown.
• Cool completely; store refrigerated.
