Frequently asked questions
How many grams is 1 cup of chocolate chips?
1 US cup of chocolate chips weighs 168 g, as measured by the USDA (1 cup chips (semisweet)). A tablespoon weighs 10.5 g.
How do I convert grams of chocolate chips to cups?
Divide the grams by 168. For example, 100 g of chocolate chips is 0.6 cups, about 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp.
Is a US cup the same as a metric cup?
No. A US cup is 236.6 ml and a metric cup (Australia, Canada, New Zealand) is 250 ml, so a metric cup of an ingredient weighs about 5–6% more than the US weights here.
Why weigh instead of using cups?
How you fill a cup changes how much goes in: scooped flour packs down, spooned flour stays loose. Weighing gives the same amount every time, which matters most for baking.
