Thank you so much for posting this recipe! I had no idea you could just blend sugar until it becomes powder. I was making fudge and ran out of powdered sugar, so I went to the web and your recipe came up! Truly a lifesaver!

I always wondered, duh. I bake and am the daughter of a Confectioner (Old-time Greek Candymaker). Now I won't worry if I need some in a pinch!
