Confectioners sugar and powdered sugar are the same, so yes, you are using the same thing regardless of what the recipe calls for.
Possibly, but it is always best just to use the ingredients that the recipe calls for.
no
That depends, what are you making?
16oz is 2 cups
Yes, but only if the recipe calls for that TYPE of sugar.
Sometimes you can, but it is best to always stick to what the recipe calls for.
I don't think many recipes that need powdered sugar would work with a substitute, but you can make powdered sugar if you have a food processor. Put granulated sugar in the food processor and a little corn starch (about one teaspoon of corn starch to one cup of sugar). Run the food process for several minutes checking periodically to see if the sugar is fine enough. When it's powdery you can use it in your recipe.
if the recipe calls for reg. rice, do NOT substitute if you don't have to, if you do, use less instant rice and cut the cooking time in half. You will find that it will not be quiite the same in texture and flavour.
Um, yes. Confectioners sugar is the same thing as powdered sugar - just a different name.
no because it won't turn out right.
I guess you could - just use twice as much. But it might make the filling cloudy-looking. MUCH better to substitute the same amount of brown sugar (1 c. if the recipe calls for 1 c. of granulated sugar). Brown sugar has a hint of molasses that makes the pecan pie richer.
