Confectioners sugar (also called Powdered sugar) differs from "regular sugar" (Granulated sugar) in two ways.

No, you cannot directly substitute powdered sugar for granulated sugar using the same measurement. Powdered sugar is much finer and has a different density, so it takes up more volume. Typically, you should use about 1 ¾ cups of powdered sugar to replace 1 cup of granulated sugar. However, it's also important to consider that powdered sugar contains cornstarch, which may affect the texture of the final product.


How much powdered sugar would i need to be equal to 1 cup on regular sugar.?

First, powdered sugar is not simply pulverized granulated sugar. There is cornstarch added to keep the extremely fine "regular" sugar from sticking together. Second, just from calorie count, one would need 50 - 75 percent more powdered sugar. Third, it tastes different. I know this from experience...ran out of granulated sugar...replaced it with powdered sugar...threw out my cup of tea! Finally, it's considerably more expensive. I would consider replacing powdered sugar with granulated--blend in blender until the consistency is correct and there is the amount you need. If it is being used in something that requires a bit of thickening, add small amounts of cornstarch until reaching the desired thickness. As a baker with over 35 years of experience, I would not substitute powdered for granulated sugar.

How much confectioners sugar do you need for 1 cup of granulated sugar?

Cornstarch is added to confectioners (powdered) sugar to prevent the sugar from lumping, so the amount is quite minimal. And adding cornstarch to granulated sugar isn't what makes it confectioners sugar. Confectioners sugar is much finer and softer than granulated sugar, it has a texture much like that of cornstarch. So you would have to be able to grind granulated sugar into a very fine powder in order to make it like confectioners sugar.
