Chocolate Chips — Frequently Asked Questions

168 grams of standard semi-sweet chocolate chips is exactly 1 US cup.
Very close. Mini chips: ~170g/cup (slightly heavier as they pack tighter). Standard chips: 168g/cup. Large/jumbo chips: ~155g/cup. For most recipes, the differences are negligible.
Yes, by weight. Use 168g of chopped chocolate for every 1 cup of chocolate chips. Chopped chocolate melts more readily because chips are formulated with stabilisers to hold their shape at oven temperatures.
Commercial chocolate chips contain less cocoa butter and more stabilisers than regular chocolate bars, which helps them hold their shape in the oven. For a more molten chocolate cookie, chop a chocolate bar instead of using chips.
Semi-sweet chips: approximately 35–45% cacao. Bittersweet chips: 60–72% cacao. Both can be used interchangeably in most recipes at the same weight. Bittersweet produces a less sweet, more intensely chocolatey result.
Toss the chocolate chips in 1 teaspoon of all-purpose flour before folding them into the batter. The flour coating helps them adhere to the batter and distribute evenly rather than sinking during baking.
