Amish Gooey Rhubarb Rolls

• Rolls
• 2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 3 tablespoons cold shortening
• 1 cup sweet milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 dashes nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 2 cups finely chopped rhubarb
• Sauce
• 1 cup hot water
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 cup sugar
• 4 teaspoons flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a bowl, sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
3. Using a pastry knife or forks, cut the shortening into the flour mixture, then add the milk and mix well.
4. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon; set aside.
5. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured board to 1/4 inch thick, spread generously with the softened butter, then spread with the chopped rhubarb and sprinkle over the sugar mixture.
6. Roll up the dough like a jellyroll or cinnamon rolls, and cut into 1 1/2 to 2 inch pieces.
7. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the hot water, butter, sugar, flour, and salt, and bring to a boil; let boil for 3 minutes to make a sweet sauce, then remove from heat and set aside.
8. Butter a 9x9-inch pan, then place the dough roll slices in the pan; pour the sauce over and around the slices.
9. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 12 to 15 minutes or until light brown.
10. Notes: you can substitute diced apples for the rhubarb.
