When converting an 8-ounce block of cheese to shredded cheese, it typically yields around 2 cups of shredded cheese[2].
.
This conversion is based on the weight of the block and the volume it produces when shredded. Therefore, if a recipe calls for 1 cup of shredded cheese, it’s important to shred the cheese and measure out the specified amount rather than using the entire block, as 8 ounces of cheese is measured by weight, not volume[1].
