A stick would be four ounces by logic -- the box is a pound, and it has four sticks, right? 16 oz in a lb, 16/4=4.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
If the recipe isn't American, though, it'll be different. European butter comes in different sizes.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
ita, I'd say the typo is more likely to be in the recipe than on the butter. Standard US packaging is 4 oz. per stick.
The brownie recipe I like uses 4 oz. melted butter per batch, one batch per 8"x8"x2" pan, and they are very rich.
eta: Hah! Wow, look at the x-posts!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I hate to assume that Cook's Illustrated ever makes a mistake, so maybe more fool me. We shall see in about an hour.

Well, even if they were wrong, it just mean super gooey brownies, right? Or double volume. Either way, it is still brownies. Spoon or extra.

Now I'm craving brownies. I have cocoa. I have butter. Who better than me?

baking word problem:
each section of dough yields two trays of cookies. each tray holds 12-14 cookies. It takes me 5 minutes to roll out and cut the dough and 7 minutes for each tray to bake. If I have 1.5 sections of dough left, how long before I'm done?
