I have noticed that alot of recipes on CC call for a stick of butter. How much is a stick of butter that the recipes refer to? Here in the uk a stick of butter is 225g. Is that right? Is it the same is the us?
there is 454 grams in a pound right? so I'd say go with what Doug said...seems like your 1 stick is about 1/2 a pound. I'd cut that stick right in half and use that!
