THE CUSTARD: Whisk the egg yolks. Wisk in sugar, cornstarch, salt and milk.

Cook over low heat until thick, about 5-10 minutes. Add butter and vanilla.

Add ⅓ of the custard. Top that with ⅓ of the rhubarb. Do this again: cake, custard, rhubarb. Finaly end with custard, rhubarb. Top the whole thing with whipped cream.
