Is there a recipe for Cake Frostings Using Granulated Sugar?

I found a Red Velvet Cake mix in the cupboard that I want to make for dessert, but I need to find a recipe for frosting to go with it, that does not use or needs very little powdered/confectioners sugar.





Because, I am almost out of powdered sugar, and I can't go shopping right now. I have A LOT of granulated white sugar (regular table sugar) that I can use.





I do have a little powdered sugar, but I emphasize, it's really not much left.





I also have:


1 1/2 sticks of butter


milk


evaporated milk


vanilla extract





Anyone know of a frosting I can use for my Red Velvet Cake (not cream cheese based frostings - I don't have cream cheese or like cream cheese based sweets anyway)





Is there any recipe for frosting using Granulated sugar in place of, or in conjunction with smaller amounts of powdered/confectioners sugar?Is there a recipe for Cake Frostings Using Granulated Sugar?

there is for powder sugar
If you have a blender or grinder of some kind, then you can just grind up the granulated sugar to make it of a finer consistency like that of powdered sugar. All powdered and confectioner sugars are is finer grains of granulated sugar.
looks good

Go to Southernfood.about.com/od/icingrecipes. They have a boiled icing made with granulated sugar, egg whites and boiling water.





Hope this helps.
Do you have corn starch? If you do, blend together the amount of sugar called for with 1 tablespoon of corn starch per each cup of sugar. It will work just like powdered sugar.

[if not, I would melt a bag of chocolate chips and do the drizzle technique]
Yes, make a buttercream icing. I know my mother used to make it with granulated sugar. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to contact her for the recipie, so try googling for buttercream icing with granulated sugar.
I you have 2 egg whites you can make a butter cream frosting. I suggest you look at foodtv.com for recipes.
I know what you mean...want to make something but don't have my ';normal'; ingredients! This is a really good frosting and should be excellent on red velvet cake. Hopefully you have a hand electric mixer.





Seven Minute Frosting


1 1/2 cups granulated sugar


1/3 cup cold water


2 egg whites


2 tsp. light corn syrup OR 1/4 tsp. cream of tartar


dash of salt


1 tsp. vanilla





In the top of a double boiler, combine all but the vanilla. Beat 30 seconds on low speed of electric mixer. Place over boiling water (upper pan should not touch water). Cook about 7 minutes while beating constantly on high speed of electric mixer or till frosting forms stiff peaks. Remove from heat; add vanilla. Beat 2 or 3 minutes more or till of spreading consistency.
This is very easy, trust me.
