This nifty bit of information was in my grocery store's monthly magazine.
Butter to Olive Oil Conversion Chart
Butter ..................................Olive Oil
1 Tbsp. = 1/8 stick.....................2 1/4 tsp.
2 Tbsp. = 1/4 stick.....................1 1/2 Tbsp.
1/4 cup = 1/2 stick.....................3 Tbsp.
1/2 cup = 1 stick.......................1/4 cup + 2 Tbsp.
2/3 cup = 1 3/8 sticks..................1/2 cup
3/4 cup = 1 1/2 sticks..................1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp.
1 cup = 2 sticks......................3/4 cup

Shannon, I got faith in you that you're come up with a way to trigger your memory.
Personally I'm not much on measuring. Mostly I do a pinch, dash, or splash of this, and a handful of that. That's why I'm not into baking; it's way too precise for me. I like to throw it all in and see what happens.

Awesome information! If i am looking at it right (I'm a little brain dead today) it looks like for everything tablespoon of butter, you do 3/4 teaspoons less of olive oil. Now to just retain and remember that information ;)

You're welcomed Erin, one of these days I am going to get around to trying coconut oil.

That's great! I'm going to copy it. I use coconut oil to sub for butter a lot, but sometimes it does have a very coconut flavor. I can see how olive oil would be better for some things. Thanks you!

Marybeth, if same to same has been working for you why change and besides think of all the math you won't have to do.
