How to measure butter
For stick butter, cut along the wrapper markings: 1 US stick is ½ cup, 8 tablespoons and 113 g. For soft butter from a tub, press it into the cup to remove air pockets, then level it.
Cold, softened and melted butter
Melting does not change the weight, so 113 g of butter is still 113 g melted. Measure melted butter after melting when the recipe says "½ cup melted butter".
A pat of butter (1 inch square, ⅓ inch high) weighs 5 g, so a stick is about 23 pats.
Butter and oils by the cup
A cup of butter (2 sticks) weighs 227 g, 9.0 g more than a cup of vegetable oil (218 g). A cup of coconut oil weighs 218 g.
