I have a pkt of American choc fudge brownie mix - it says to use 'a stick' of softened butter, any ideas as to the English equivalent please?

A stick of butter is a quarter of a pound.

A stick of butter is about 90 grams, softened is that you put it out of the fridge and it softens. You can also try to put it in the microwave for 10 second only.
Good luck
Happy 2007!!!

Butter is generally sold four "sticks" to the pound. So, a stick is 1/4th of a pound (or 4 ounces). Volume equivalent: half a cup.
Metric equivalent, I haven't a clue !!

A 'stick' is 8 Tblsp., or 1/2 cup. A one-pound package of butter/margarine has 4 sticks in it.

It is a quarter pound of butter left out of the refrigerator to soften which depends how hard it was in the refrigerator and the temperature outside.It should smash easy with a fork

A stick of soft butter is butter you let sit out on the counter until it gets soft. A stick of soft butter equals 1/2 cup of butter.
