You might find yourself halving a bigger recipe. Like, the original calls for 1 and 1/3 cup of sugar, and you’re making a half batch. That’s when we toast our measuring cups. Cheers to 2/3 cup.
Let’s say the recipe wants 1 and 1/3 cup of chocolate chips. Half? 2/3 cup. But if you’re me, you just dump in a full cup because more chocolate is always the right answer. Don’t tell the recipe gods I said that.

The Lazy Cook’s Method (It’s Always Me)
Don’t own a 1/3 cup? Grab a 1/4 cup. Fill it twice. That’s 1/2 cup. Then add a heaping tablespoon. Not exactly perfect? Close enough. The kitchen police are not coming.
Or, if you’re in a rush? Just use 10 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons. Why? Because 2/3 cup equals that. I had to look it up. I’m not a robot, just a person who owns too many measuring spoons.
