Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chopped fresh rhubarb
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy—about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well incorporated.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the butter-sugar blend to form a soft dough.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped rhubarb until evenly distributed.
  7. Scoop rounded mounds of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges turn a light golden brown.
  9. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.

Notes

For a lighter version, use coconut oil or applesauce instead of butter. To make gluten-free, opt for gluten-free flour.
