Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch square or round baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb, 1 cup of granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Stir until the rhubarb is evenly coated, then transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir the milk into the flour mixture just until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
Drop spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the rhubarb mixture, leaving some gaps for the fruit juices to bubble through.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the rhubarb filling is bubbling.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
