Some creative recipes using baker's chocolate squares include chocolate truffles, chocolate bark, chocolate-covered strawberries, and homemade Hot Chocolate.
24 is not Correct. Who ever that is just being Silly. Baker Squares are 1 oz each. and there is 16 oz in a pound(lb) So you would need 16 Squares of Bakers baking Chocolate to get a pound.\ And there is 32 in 2 pounds
you will need 16 squares or 2 cups
Depends on the brand - but for Bakers 1 square = 1 ounce.
In recipes, generally one square means one ounce.
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!
Baker's brand from Kraft General Foods comes is a package of 8 individually wrapped 1-ounce squares. Other brands may vary.
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."

Not usually, no.
