Measuring chocolate chips by the cup

Use regular semisweet chips, measured level. A 12-ounce bag (340 g) holds about 2 cups; mini and large chips weigh a little more per cup.

Level dry ingredients with a flat edge instead of leaving a heap, and read liquids on a flat surface at eye level. When a recipe gives grams, a kitchen scale is the surest way to match it.
