= Butter, Substitutes = Unsalted butter can be substituted for regular butter in any recipe. It is NOT necessary to add salt. Margarine can also be substituted for butter. Do NOT use lowfat spreads or light butter for baking.

I would use about 6 tbsp of butter. This is a little more than a 1/3cup but you need to compensate for the moisture content of the butter.

What is a vegetable shortening substitute?

It depends on what you are baking or cooking. Vegetable oil can substitute in some cases. Although it will change the characteristic of your end product because vegetable oil has less "shortening power" than vegetable shortening. Butter can substitute too but you would have to increase the volume and there is the risk of burning depending on what you are making. Lard can substitute too. Its really hard to give an answer that is good, safe without knowing what you are using the shortening for. If you are frying something it is another different matter too.

Also, oil will give some cookies, such as shortbread, a different texture than they would have when made with butter.
