No | Rating: 0    Pros: n/a Cons: Carb count is incorrect Hi. Total carbs for this recipe as shown is 32. Since one cup of Splenda has 24 carbs & there are 4 cups required, the carb count is way off. The count for the unsweetened chocolate alone is 14.8. I quickly added up a count using Atkins totals and make this recipe out to be over 137 total (including icing) or 8.5 each. The Carbquik pound cake recipe on their website also appears incorrect. Did anyone else come to the same conclusion?

Cons: Somewhat dry. It's great. Uhmm.. you up there. Did you really count just net carbs? It seems right to me. jlatislaw Senior LCF Member Registered: July 2002 Location: SW Mich Posts: 834 Review Date: Fri September 2, 2005 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 0    Pros: N/A Cons: CARBCOUNT If you're using granular Splenda then the carb count for 16 servings (JUST the Splenda) is 6 carbs per piece. That's not counting any of the other ingredients.
