Chocolate Chips Conversion: Cups to Grams

Chocolate chips are small, teardrop-shaped pieces of chocolate used in baking. Semi-sweet is most common, but they also come in milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and white chocolate varieties. They are formulated to hold their shape when baked, unlike bar chocolate which melts and spreads. Mini chips distribute more evenly in batter.
