Leveling Compound

I am a flooring man. I am making my kid a coffee table and intend on tiling the top. The tile will go onto a plywood surface 48" x 18".
How do I make sure this surface is level for the tile. Is there a compound for wood? Will the adhesive handle the job. I was thinking of using gorilla glue and having it fill gaps under the tile and therefore level the sub board?
Any ideas? I am probably over thinking this, just point me in the right direction please.

It's what I use when fabricating my own countertops, - - it's straight and flat, - - and although it is a type of high-density-fiberboard, - - it has a slightly rouger surface than standard HDF, - - therefore providing a better bonding surface for the laminate or tile.

Check with your local lumberyard, - - maybe they have it.
