Method

Preheat oven to 180 deg cel, gas 4.
Grease two sandwich tins, 18cm/7 '', and dust with rice flour, then line the tins with greaseproof paper.
Cream the butter, gradually add the sugar and beat until pale, light and soft.
Add the eggs one at a time beating well between each addition.
The butter and sugar must be creamed properly, as adding the eggs too fast will cause the mixture to curdle resulting in the cake having a heavier texture.
Sift the rice flour, baking powder, ground almonds and xanthan gum together and stir in gradually.
Mix all together lightly and add the milk to moisten.
Divide the mixture evenly between the tins and make a slight hollow in the centre.
Bake for about 20-25 mins or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Turn the cakes onto a wire rack and leave to cool.
Sandwich the cakes together with the filling, dust with sifted icing sugar.
You can vary the filling to suit your taste.
