300 g of chopped nuts in cups
300 g ≈ 2.5 cups
That is also 40 tablespoons, at 120 g per US cup.
How to measure it
2½ cups
2.5 cups is a number, not an instruction — there is no 2.5 cup in the drawer. The line above is the same quantity in the sizes you actually own, and following it lands within a teaspoon of 300 g.
Spoon the chopped nuts into the cup and level it off. Scooping straight from the bag packs it down; on flour that alone is worth about 20%, which is more than the difference this page is measuring.

Why this number moves
Depends heavily on how coarse the chop is. Whole nuts run heavier per cup than chopped.
This page uses 120 g per US cup. If your recipe came with its own figure, use theirs — internal consistency matters more than which table is right.

Frequently asked questions
How many cups is 300 g of chopped nuts?
2.5 cups, which in measuring cups and spoons is 2½ cups. One US cup of chopped nuts weighs about 120 g.
How do I measure 300 g of chopped nuts without scales?
2½ cups. Spoon it in and level the top rather than scooping — scooping compacts chopped nuts and can add a fifth to the weight.
Is this the same in the UK?
The gram figure is, the cup is not. A US cup is 236.6 ml and the metric cup used in Australia and much of Europe is 250 ml, so a European cup of chopped nuts weighs about 127 g. These pages use the US cup.
