Measuring butter
You don’t need a measuring cup to measure butter. The markings on the wrapper provide an easy way to cut off the amount you need.
Remember, one stick is ½ cup or 8 Tablespoons.
| Cups | Sticks | Pounds | Tablespoons |
| ½ | 1 | ¼ | 8 |
| ¼ | ½ | 1/8 | 4 |
| 1/3 | ½ + (1 1/3 Tablespoons) | 5 1/3 | |
| 2/3 | 1 + (2 2/3 Tablespoons) | 10 2/3 | |
| ¾ | 1½ | 3/8 | 12 |
| 1 | 2 | ½ | 16 |
| 2 | 4 | 1 | 32 |
Please note that whipped butter cannot be measured by volume.
