This ruby chocolate upside down cake has become my go to dessert when I want something special without spending all day in the kitchen. The beautiful pink ruby chocolate paired with warm cinnamon creates a stunning cake that tastes far more impressive than the simple sixty minute start to finish time suggests. What I love most is that almond milk makes it naturally lighter than traditional cakes while still keeping everything moist and delicious. The whole thing comes together in just twenty minutes of prep work, so you'll have dessert on the table before dinner guests even arrive. Trust me, once you try this one, you'll be making it constantly.
