They mean two to two and a quarter cups. Just dump about two cups confectioners sugar in a sifter and measure it loosely in a one-cup measure. Level off with the back of a knife blade for one cup. Do the second cup the same. If you need more to make it spreading consistency, add more sugar.

That means two cups of sifted icing sugar or you could add as much as two cups and one quarter cup more of icing sugar.

between 2 cups and 2 1/4 cups. You'll have to judge it as you make whatever it is you're making.

it is 2 1/2 cups. a cup is like a dollar. 1/4 of the dollar is .25c 2/4 would be .50c or 1/2 of the dollar and so on.
