When substituting powdered sugar for granulated sugar, the general ratio is 1:1. However, since powdered sugar is finer and contains a small amount of cornstarch, it may slightly alter the texture of baked goods. For most recipes, you can use the same amount of powdered sugar as granulated sugar, but keep in mind that the sweetness level may be perceived as slightly different.
