Go to the link below and search their recipes. I know it says kids, but they seem to have some great ideas for cake recipes with no gluten or milk.http://www.kidswithfoodallergies.org

These are a cookie rather than a cake, but you could make a stack of them, or arrange them in a circle.
Coconut Haystacks
2 oz butter
1/2 c sugar
1 egg
2 c dessicated coconut
Turn the oven to 350 degrees F, melt butter, and add other ingredients. Mix, and put generous teaspoonfuls on to a sheet of baking paper on an oven tray. The cookie will stay the same size after baking. Bake for 12 – 15 mins until the bottom edges are golden brown. Watch closely.
Don’t ice these, as there is normally a little gluten in the powdered sugar (it usually has a little cornstarch added to it to make it flow easily). A little blob of jam put on top of each biscuit before baking can look nice too.

Gluten-Free Chocolate Beer Cake
Ingredients:
1 cup gluten-free ale
8 Tbs. unsalted butter or Earth Balance Shortening
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 cups granulated cane sugar
¾ cup sour cream or Tofutti Sour Supreme
2 eggs
1 Tablespoon gluten-free vanilla extract
2 cups All Purpose Nearly Normal Gluten-Free Flour Mix
1 Tablespoon baking soda
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F.
(Note- you will need a large saucepan for this recipe, not a mixer and mixing bowl!)
Butter a 9-inch springform tube or springform pan (if using plain springform pan, line the bottom with parchment paper).
In a small bowl, whisk the sour cream with the eggs and vanilla.
Pour the 1-cup beer into a large saucepan (drink the rest!). Add the butter and heat just until melted over medium heat. Whisk in the cocoa powder and the sugar until smooth.
Add the egg mixture into saucepan mixture and whisk. Add the flour and baking soda until mixed. Pour into the greased pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a cooling rack and remove from the pan when fully cooled.
Frost the top of the cake with a gluten-free cream cheese or white frosting of choice.
Easy Cream Cheese Frosting:
8 oz. cream cheese (can use fat free!)
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
½ cup heavy cream (can use half & half, but use less than ½ cup)
Whip the cream cheese and sugar until smooth, then slowly stir in the cream to make spread-able consistency.
