How Much Is a Stick of Butter?
In the US, one standard stick of butter weighs 113 grams (4 oz) and equals ½ cup or 8 tablespoons. A full pound of butter contains 4 sticks (454g / 2 cups).
European butter is typically sold in 250g blocks, not sticks. If a recipe calls for "1 stick," use 113g or ½ cup of European-style butter.
Salted vs. unsalted butter
For baking, most recipes specify unsalted butter so the baker can control the salt level. If you only have salted, reduce other salt in the recipe by about ¼ tsp per stick.
