Sticky liquids like molasses are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring cup first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.
Understanding the Units
What is a Milliliter?
Most kitchen measuring cups outside the US are marked in milliliters. A standard metric cup is 250 ml. When converting American recipes, 1 US cup = 236.588 ml.

Weighing molasses on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. Molasses is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring cups and spoons, making volume measurements less reliable than for thinner liquids. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the cup first so the molasses slides out cleanly.
Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The milliliters to ounces result for molasses should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.
Molasses is dense and sticky, so it clings to measuring cups and does not pour cleanly. Volume measurements can easily be off by 5-10% depending on how much molasses stays stuck to the container. A kitchen scale avoids this entirely and is the recommended way to measure sticky liquids.
