Generally speaking, a 12-oz bag of Chocolate Chips is equivalent to about 4 cups of chips, while one square of almond bark (2.5 oz) is equivalent to about 1 cup of chocolate chips. Therefore, assuming a 12-oz bag of chocolate chips, it would take around 4 squares of almond bark to equal the contents of the bag.
4.5 oz
86 semi-sweet chocolate chips equals 3 squares of semi-sweet baking chocolate.
1 oz (weight)
1 1/3 cups semi-sweet cho chips
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!
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.
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.
6 ounces of chocolate chips = 1/3 cup = 1 baking chocolate square
There is no listing of recognised "bag" size. - Quote your bag size in ounces or gm and I can answer.
A square of chocolate is usually much bigger than a chocolate chip. Usually you will need more chocolate chips than squares of baking chocolate.
If you mean 1 oz squares (ie Baker's), 12 ounces would equal one 12-ounce bag of chips, or about two cups. Nestle's is making baking squares that are only half an ounce, so 12 of those would be 6 ounces of chips, or about one cup.
