Working with chopped chocolate
Chopped Chocolate sits in the chocolate & cocoa group, where a cup lands in the same range as water, but the material still compacts differently depending on how you fill the cup. Chop size changes packing. For ganache, weigh the chocolate — the cream ratio depends on it.
If you are converting a whole recipe rather than a single line, the Recipe to Metric converter matches every ingredient to its own density in one pass, and the Recipe Scaler resizes the batch first so you only convert once.
