Can you substitute granulated sugar for powdered sugar?

In: Baking
[Edit]
No, you cannot substitute granulated sugar for powdered sugar directly.

However, you can make your own powdered sugar from granulated sugar using a BLENDER.

Run the granulated sugar through a BLENDER until it reaches the proper consistency. It is important to stir the sugar up from the bottom manually at least twice during the process to ensure all sugar is processed properly.

In doing this, however, you might find the end product to be slightly different in taste or consistency.
