How to measure half and half accurately
For the most reliable baking results, weigh half and half on a kitchen scale rather than scooping by volume. One US cup of half and half weighs about 242 grams (8.54 oz), but the exact figure changes with how tightly it's packed and the brand. Scooping straight from the bag compacts half and half and can leave you 15 to 20% over, so spoon it into the cup and level it off for the closest match to the figures above. Use the tables for quick reference, or the converter for any custom amount in cups, grams, ounces or tablespoons.
Tip: You can approximate half-and-half by mixing equal parts whole milk and heavy cream if your shop doesn't carry it.
