Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans with gluten-free flour.

In a bowl, whisk together brown rice flour, coconut flour, sorghum flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

In another bowl, beat together sugar and eggs until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Add buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture; mix until combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until smooth.

Stir in red food coloring until the desired color is achieved.

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.

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

Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

While the cakes cool, prepare the cream cheese frosting by beating cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth.

Add milk and vanilla extract to the frosting, mixing until fluffy.

Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the top of one layer, then place the second layer on top and frost the top and sides.
