• Add the rhubarb and stir to mix in evenly. Pour the filling over the crust once it comes out of the oven.

• Return to the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until the filling is set. Allow bars to cool completely before frosting.

FROSTING:

• Whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form; set aside.

• Beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla together until smooth; fold in the whipped cream just until well mixed.

• Spread over the top of the cooled bars. Cover, chill and store in the refrigerator.
