Yes, ounce for ounce. One square of baker's semisweet chocolate is one ounce, if you were to chop 8 of the squares up it would be the equivalent of 8oz. or 1cup of semisweet chips. Happy baking :-)
Yes, it may e a little more chocolately but i twould other wise be fine
no u cant cause it will cause u to not breath like if u chuge cimimion u will chock and dieee so dont do it
You can if you are melting them, but you might have to cut it up. If you are making cookies, you will not end up with good looking cookies.
Certainly! There should be no problem with that substitution.
you can break them up?
In most recipes you can, yes.
6 ounces of chocolate chips = 1/3 cup = 1 baking chocolate square
86 semi-sweet chocolate chips equals 3 squares of semi-sweet baking chocolate.
Chocolate chips have sugar and other ingredients in them. Bakers squares are usually just pure unsweetened chocolate. You could probably substitute but need to adjust sugar in your recepie.
I just found something that says 3 squares equals 86 chocolate chips.... so that would be about 29 chocolate chips for 1 square!!! Happy Baking!
4.5 oz
In cookie recipes, the recipe probably means semi-sweet chocolate chips. Bakers' chocolate, which is usually unsweetened, would be far too bitter. But you have a lot of choices, depending on the taste you want in your cookies. Semi-sweet chocolate chips tend to be the most popular, but you could choose chocolate mint chips, peanut butter, butterscotch, white chocolate chips or chocolate pieces of various sizes, from mini-chips to the larger "chunks."
Baking chocolate squares are about 1 ounce of chocolate (although some may be smaller 1/2 ounce squares). You can use a food scale to measure out the corresponding amount of chocolate chips - ie 4 ounces of chips for 4 squares. If you don't have a scale I've found that this usually works out to about 3/4 cup of chocolate chips.
If you want to convert chocolate chips to chocolate squares, you can roughly estimate that 1 cup of chocolate chips is equivalent to 6 ounces of chocolate squares. Keep in mind that the shape and size of the squares may vary, so it's best to measure by weight for more accurate results.
Sometimes, but it depends on what materials are being used exactly. If taking out Baking Chocolate squares, you have to use baking Chocolate Chips, not just average chocolate chips or else the recipe will not be correct. Another view: I've found that choc. chips usually substitute pretty well for chocolate squares. Just keep in mind that most chocolate chips are "semi-sweet" while chocolate squares may be "bitter-sweet" or completely "unsweetened." If the recipe calls for unsweetened squares, your product will turn out rather sweeter than the recipe intends. If you look on the chocolate chip package, you may find the equivalent listed.
A square of chocolate is usually much bigger than a chocolate chip. Usually you will need more chocolate chips than squares of baking chocolate.
You would need 8/10 of a 1/4 pound chocolate block to = 1 cup of chocolate chips
Yes, however the texture and taste will be a little different. Chocolate baking squares are usually unsweetened or a very dark chocolate, while Chocolate Chips are usually semi-sweet or milk chocolate.
