Cut the dough into 12 pieces like you would cut a pizza and roll each piece from the outside in. The rhubarb will make this process messy, and you'll probably want to clean off the counter between batches. Place each cookie on a greased cookie sheet with the point (from the center of the circle) face down. Repeat with remaining dough.
