According to my fitday, 3/4 cup of splenda = 18 carbs. I am not sure if 36 tsp is correct. You can buy american cups in the supermarket.

I can't even find Splenda on Fitday. Did you do a create food thing for it?

1 cup of splenda is 48 teaspoons... 1 teaspoon has 0.45 carbs... so 48 tsp have 21.6 carbs. So if you are using 3/4 of a cup, this means 16.2 net carbs.

On Fitday you can find it if you search sucralose.

well, the big problem with that is the fact that using volume measuring is so inaccurate that there is no answer for it. you can take 4 ounces of flour into 1/2 cup or fluff it up to 3/4 cup. then there is the whole humidity thing.... So, that being said.... 1 packet has just under .5g of maltodextrin and dextrose in it which we round up to 1g. so I guess that would make it 18g if I am not mistaken. I don't bake with Splenda, so I am a bit out of the loop.

Wow. Just tried the cookies and WAY too sweet! I will cut that back to 1/4 or 1/3 at the most and save some carbs too. But they are yummy! Thanks for the help ya'll!
