You can't unless they are melted. If you need to melt chocolate chips, you need to use cocoa powder, butter and sugar.
Every ounce of chocolate can be replaced by 3 TBLS of Cocoa Powder (unsweetened) and 1 TBL of Butter and 3 TBLS of Sugar

∙ 13y agoYou can substitute Cocoa for chocolate squares or chocolate chips:
3 tablespoons cocoa plus 1 Tablespoon butter or shortening for 1oz(28 grams) chocolate, unsweetened. Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips have some sugar added.
Substituting semi-sweet chips for cocoa powder would be more tricky, because you would be adding fat (usually milk fat) and sugar that is not in cocoa powder. Unless you are willing to calculate those factors and adjust the recipe accordingly, it would be better to use a recipe written for Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips instead of trying to substitute the chips for cocoa powder.
