Butter is made from milk. I can not be made from olive oil. Olive oil comes from olives and butter comes from a milk of some short (usually from cow's milk). If you are thinking of the margarine made with olive oil this is likely the spreadable kind that you buy in tub. This is not the same thing either. I think that it is vegetable oils whipped with water and salt and thickeners. Shortening is hydrogenated vegetable oil. You will have more luck substituting butter or lard for your shortening.

Yes, butter may be used to prevent cookies from sticking to the baking sheet.

In fact, many cookies need to be baked on cool, ungreased baking sheets to prevent their spreading more than they should.
