Example: using white chocolate chips in a recipe

If a recipe asks for 1 1/2 cups of white chocolate chips, that is 1.5 x 170 g, or about 255 g. If a recipe gives 200 g and you only have cups, divide 200 by 170 to get about 1.18 cups.

How to measure white chocolate chips

Chips and chunks leave gaps between the pieces, so a cup of white chocolate chips weighs less than a cup of the same chocolate melted. Weigh it for recipes where the amount matters.

Where these weights come from

Weights follow the King Arthur Baking ingredient weight chart (rounded). Brands and measuring methods vary, so treat results as close estimates.
