Rhubarb Cobbler with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
Recipe Courtesy of Emeril Lagasse
Show:  The Essence of Emeril
Episode:  Cooking with Rhubarb
2 pounds diced fresh rhubarb
2 1/4 cups sugar, in all
4 tablespoons butter plus 4 teaspoons, divided
Juice of one lemon
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 cup buttermilk
Vanilla bean ice cream
Fresh mint sprigs
Powdered sugar
Cinnamon sugar

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 2 quart casserole dish with 2 teaspoons butter. In a saucepan, combine the rhubarb, 2 cups sugar, 4 tablespoons of butter and lemon juice. Stir and cook until a syrup begins to form and the rhubarb starts to soften, about 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat. Using an electric mixer, cream the remaining 2 teaspoons butter and sugar together. Add the egg. Slowly add the baking powder, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, and buttermilk. Mix until thoroughly incorporated and the batter resembles a cake batter. Pour the rhubarb into a greased 2 quart casserole dish. Pour the batter over the rhubarb. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the center is done. Spoon a heaping serving of the cobbler onto a shallow bowl. Place one scoop of the ice cream to the side. Garnish with fresh mint, powdered sugar, and cinnamon sugar.
