Cup & Gram

240 Grams of Butter to Cups

240 grams of butter equals 1 cup (1.06 US cups), based on 227 g per cup (level cup). In the kitchen, measure 1 cup + 1 tbsp. For best results, weigh butter with a scale — cup measurements vary with how the cup is filled.

This is a typical single-recipe amount, where how you fill the cup matters most: a level, consistent fill keeps batches repeatable.

How to measure 240 g of butter without a scale

In the US, butter is easiest to measure by the wrapper: one stick is ½ cup = 8 tbsp = 113 g, and the wrapper is printed with tablespoon marks. For amounts that aren’t clean stick fractions, weigh it — cutting soft butter into a measuring cup traps air pockets.
