In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and red food coloring.

Gradually add the dry ingredients, alternating with the dairy-free buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

While the cakes are cooling, prepare the gooey chocolate ganache by heating the dairy-free cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chopped chocolate. Let sit for 2-3 minutes, then whisk until smooth. Set aside to cool and thicken.
