you add water to it and stir but do not add to much water otherwise it will be the consistency of water!
1 cup of confectioner's sugar is approximately 1/4 pound. You won't be able to make much icing, but you can divide the typical buttercream icing recipe by 4. The recipe would be 4 oz. butter, 1/4 tsp. vanilla, 1 c. confectioners sugar and 2 - 4 tsp. milk, depending on the consistency you want.
You proportionately reduce the recipe you are using to adapt the quantities to one cup of confectioner's sugar. This is done by (on a calculator) dividing the quantity of sugar that you have, by the quantity that you need - doing this in grams or oz is easiest, calculating in cups is more difficult. Doing this gives you a decimal number that you should use to multiply all the other ingredients which are needed for the recipe by. Use all the new quantities for the recipe, using one cup of sugar. This means you have rescaled (i.e reduced) the quantity of the recipe to cope with only one cup of sugar.

Powdered (confectioner's) sugar is a basic ingredient to cream cheese frosting. Substitutions such as granulated table sugar, brown sugar or honey will not produce acceptable cream cheese frosting. In a pinch, it may be possible to process granulated white sugar in a blender or food processor until very fine. Then add a tablespoon of corn starch to each cup of very finely processed sugar to approximate powdered sugar.

If my buttercreme frosting has a yellow tint to it How can you dye it white?
Buttercream frosting or icing naturally has a cream colour from the butter in it. The more air beaten into it, the paler it will be, and the softer it will be. The yellow colour of pure butter is naturally stronger if the cows producing the milk are grass fed rather than grain fed. If a pure white frosting or icing is wanted, do not use butter or make a buttercream, but the creamy flavour will be missing.
