Weight or fluid ounces?

Can you please specify how much of the chocolate chips to add? Is it fluid ounces or weight ounces? Also, I don't have a weigher so could you just convert it? A cup of chocolate chips? Half a cup?? Thanks!!

Owner's reply

Hi ecrivezmaria, chocolate is a solid so it's measured as ounces by weight, not by liquid. So the measurement is weight ounces. Four ounces of chocolate is roughly a commercial bar of high quality chocolate. I don't recommend using chocolate chips in baking unless they're specifically called for. This is because chocolate chips are usually inferior quality compared to the higher quality chocolate available for baking and in bar form.

If you absolutely had to use chocolate chips, 4 ounces is 3/4 cup. Good luck!

"Great recipe! Very easy to make. I used coffee in place of warm water. Very moist, decadent, chocolate cake. It was even better the next day! A new family favorite. We will definitely make this again. Thank you much!"

"Hello, we make a lot of vegan yogurt at home made simply from cashews, soy milk (with no additives), and vegan yogurt culture. Is there any reason to think that this recipe will not work with our yogurt?"

"Excellent recipe, probably the best brownies I've tasted. I suspect that vegan brownies are a good choice to make because your aren't trying to make something light and fluffy without eggs, you are making something nice, gooey and chocolatey. I have found best result when using a ceramic tray rather than a metal baking try. When using a metal try the sides seem to rise making more of a cake. Previous post mentioned not being able to melt the chocolate. I put the chocolate in the microwave until it just starts to melt and then carry on with the rest of the recipe as instructed. The one mistake I have made in the passed was using slightly too much water. It needs hardly any, the mixture seems way too thick but just persevere with it..."
