How to measure butter

Press it into a dry measuring cup with a spatula to push out air pockets, then level the top. Or set the bowl on a kitchen scale and add the grams from the table, with no cup to scrape out.

Other charts may list a different weight for a cup of butter: it depends on how the cup is filled and on the brand. The numbers on this page come from one measured USDA portion (1 cup = 227 g), the same data the LevelSpoon converter uses, so the page and the app always agree.

US cups and spoons (1 cup = 236.6 ml). “≈” marks the nearest amount you can measure, within 2.5 %.
