Ingredients

• 3 cups (chopped) Rhubarb
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Water
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder
• 2 tablespoons Cold water

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup of water.

Step 2

Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10-15 minutes, until the rhubarb becomes soft and breaks down into a sauce-like consistency.

Step 3

Remove the rhubarb mixture from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Set it aside to cool to room temperature.

Step 4

In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over 2 tablespoons of cold water. Let it bloom for about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Gently heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave or a small saucepan over low heat until fully dissolved. Stir the dissolved gelatin into the cooled rhubarb mixture.

Step 6

In a separate large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together until soft peaks form.

Step 7

Fold the rhubarb mixture into the whipped cream gently, ensuring everything is well incorporated, but be careful not to deflate the cream.

Step 8

Spoon the rhubarb fluff into individual serving dishes or a large bowl.

Step 9

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.

Step 10

Serve cold and enjoy this light, tangy treat!
