I hope you're still monitoring this comment list. How do I convert a butter amount to a butter + shortening amount or vice versa? Quite often the conversion will be half and half. I like to use all butter in some recipes calling for all shortening. I feel the flavor often offsets the fact that I am loosing some flakiness. If you substitute butter in a cookie recipe your cookies will spread more. You may do any percentage you like and you may want to experiment to see which flavor and baked result you like best.
