How ¼ cup of mascarpone works out
One US cup of mascarpone weighs 232 grams, so multiply by 0.25 to get a quarter cup: 232 × 0.25 = 58 g. In the other direction, 58 g of mascarpone divided by 232 brings you back to ¼ cup.
If you have no scales, ¼ cup is 4 level tablespoons of mascarpone (12 teaspoons), because a US cup holds 16 tablespoons. In a 250 ml metric cup — the Australian, New Zealand and modern UK standard — the same fraction is 61.3 g.
Tip: Bring mascarpone close to room temperature and fold it in gently; beating it hard or cold can make it curdle and turn grainy.
