Could I substitute regular granulated sugar for baker's sugar in a
cookie recipe?


Do you mean confectioner's sugar? I have never seen "baker's sugar."


confectioners sugar == powdered sugar == icing sugar

baker's sugar == superfine sugar == berry sugar == bar sugar

superfine granules are about 1/2 the volume of "regular" or sugar


Don't you mean double? The granules being smaller would pack tighter
eliminating air spaces meaning the weight by volume would be higher.
