I found this recipe today

Lemon Raspberry Cupcakes Serves 12; Serving size: 1 cupcake
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 25 to 30 minute Ingredients

 
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup Splenda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tsp fresh lemon zest
3/4 cup nonfat buttermilk
1/3 cup plain nonfat yogurt (preferably Greek-style)
1/3 cup canola oil
2 eggs
1 tsp pure vanilla
4 oz fresh raspberries, gently washed

Preparation
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Add paper liners to a 12-cup muffin pan.

2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, Splenda, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.

3. In a large bowl, combine the lemon juice and lemon zest. Add in the buttermilk, yogurt, and oil. Beat at medium speed for 1 minute. Add in one egg, and continue to beat for 1 minute. Add in some of the flour mixture, and beat for 1 minute. Add in another egg and the vanilla, and beat for 1 minute. Add the remaining flour, and beat for 1 minute.

4. Gently fold in the raspberries by hand. Pour the batter into all the muffin cups.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until a tester inserted into a cupcake comes out clean. Remove the cupcakes from the oven. Allow them to cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes. Remove the cupcakes, place on a cooling rack, and cool completely. Nutrition Information

Just wondering if anybody has tried baking with rice flour?  Wheat based flour tends to leave me gassy.  I have used almond meal for very dense muffins, but not for cake yet.  And I do not mix the meal with flour, I use all almond meal.  

Let me know if you have a good recipe using rice four or another non wheat flour.

Has anyone figured the calories and carbs for the diet coke cake with the ff condensed milk and butterfingers on top.

I have a friend who has recently had Gastric Bypass who is turning 65 next week.  I would love to make this for her but I'm afraid of the carbs and calories.  I know if I get to much, I'm sick and don't want her to be sick on her birthday!!!
