Frosted Rhubarb Cookies

We have a very old & quite large rhubarb plant in our garden. Each year we are at a loss of what to do with all the harvest we get off the gigantic plant. These cookies are a quick, easy, & a cheap recipe to use up some of that rhubarb! They turn out cakey soft & gently sweet.
