This recipe can easily be multiplied to make a crowd-pleasing punch for your next shower, party, brunch, etc. The brands listed are those that Ruby Tuesday lists on their drink menu (how nice of them to tell us what is in their drink so that we can come home and make it ourselves!)

RUBY CHOCOLATE ROCKY ROAD
The idea of rocky road is pretty much that: piles of rocky goodies all coated and glued together with chocolate that doesn't crack when you bite into it (thanks to coconut oil). So although I have used some fairly gourmet ingredients here, don't feel locked into that. Just go with what you have in the cupboard that you think will go well together!

RUBY SLIPPER CAKE
This is the cake I always made for my youngest daughter's birthday when she was growing up. I used to frost it with white fluffy frosting, sprinkle it with shredded coconut and decorate it with a big red ribbon, like a Fluffy White Christmas Wreath, as she had a Christmas birthday. I lost my copy of the recipe and have been looking for it for years and was delighted to finally find it. I am posting it here so I never lose it again! It is a delicious cake with a lovely raspberry filling.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around in the middle of cooking.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and nutritional value. This is especially important for vegetables and fruits.
- Season Your Food: Don't be afraid to season your food. Salt, pepper, and garlic are essential seasonings that can enhance the flavor of any dish.
- Cook to the Correct Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that your meat is cooked to the correct temperature. This will help you avoid undercooked or overcooked meat.
- Don't Crowd the Pan: When cooking meat or vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the food from cooking evenly.
- Let Your Meat Rest: After cooking meat, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing or serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
- Garnish Your Dishes: A simple garnish can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your dishes. Try using fresh herbs, lemon zest, or grated cheese.
