Ingredients
Instructions
-
Measure out 1 cup of granulated sugar and place it in a high-speed blender or food processor.
-
Add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to the sugar. The cornstarch will help prevent the sugar from clumping and will give your powdered sugar a light texture.
-
Blend the sugar and cornstarch on high speed for about 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is finely ground and resembles store-bought powdered sugar. Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor as needed to ensure all the sugar is evenly powdered.
-
Once the sugar has reached a powdery consistency, sift it through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any larger granules that did not fully grind. This step is important for achieving a smooth, silky powdered sugar.
-
Transfer your freshly made powdered sugar to an airtight container or a resealable bag for storage. Use it in your favorite recipes as you would store-bought powdered sugar.
