I found a recipe from Plated that I'd like to try. They list the quantities of all ingredients except the butter. The recipe calls for "4 packets unsalted butter". Would anyone know the quantity of butter in a plated butter packet?

For what it's worth, here's the recipe: https://www.plated.com/recipes/caram...eese-with-kale

I was looking for something akin to Amy's 3 cheese kale bake.

With all that cheese,
and the photo,

I think it's 4 PATS of butter, or what you can get in a restaurant here, the little pats on a paper backing. Not sure... but each pat might be 1/2 tablespoon or so of butter.

That's kind of what I was thinking....I'm sure it would be evident during cooking but figured I'd ask.

Thanks!

I searched for "butter" in this article, and greatblueheron seems to be exactly right:

She's even right about the measurement:
