Default Recipe Needed: Angel Food Cake

I went to the grocery store today and read the boxes from angel food
cake mixes. I had been searching the net for recipes that looked lower
in carbs (have to wait until the raspberries are in season for the one
posted here). The box mixes are 33- 35g of carbs per 1/12 of a cake.
Too high!

I did find one on Recipe Zaar http://www.recipezaar.com/ that has only
19.3g per serving. This, I feel we can work with if we do some portion
control.

Interestingly, the recipe calls for confectioners' sugar. I am wondering
if I could substitute half of the confectioners' sugar for Splenda as
the texture is about the same. Or maybe 1/4 Splenda and 3/4
confectioner's sugar.

Does anyone have any thoughts about the Splenda and confectioners' sugar
proportions or should I just use the sugar and portion control?
