1 1/2 cups margarine |
3 cups white sugar |
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour |
1 cup rice flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
6 room-temperature eggs |
2 cups lukewarm milk |
2 cups grated parmesan cheese |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup sesame seeds |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour a medium glass baking dish.
2. In a bowl, beat together margarine and 3 cups sugar until fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well. Combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, rice flour, and baking powder; add them alternately with the milk, stirring well between each addition. Slowly stir in Parmesan cheese. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
3. In a small bowl, mix the 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, and sesame seeds. Sprinkle evenly over the batter in the cake pan.
