What is the difference between semi sweet chocolate and semi sweet chocolate chips?

Chocolate Chips (usually) have added stabilisers, to ensure that they remain in "chip" form when they are baked. Quality is often poorer in chocolate chips compared to semi-sweet chocolate; more sugar, fewer cocoa solids etc... Usually cocoa solid content is not listed on chcolate chips (because it's very low). I personally prefer to use semi-sweet or dark choclate, chopped roughly whenever "chocolate chips" are required. (That way you're also more likely to be able to find the chcolate when it's been cooked - chocolate chips seem to disappear). Dark Chocolate buttons, if they're a good quality, also work just fine.
