Measuring Chocolate Chips Accurately
Why weight matters: 2/3 cup of chocolate chips can weigh anywhere from 96g to 136g depending on how you measure it. The USDA standard is 113.33g (spooned and leveled). Scooping directly from the container can add 10–20% extra weight, which affects recipe results — especially in baking.

About 2/3 Cup as a Measurement
2/3 cup = 10 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons = 160ml. This measure appears when scaling up 1/3 cup recipes by doubling. Use two 1/3-cup measures for accuracy, as 2/3 cup sets are less common.
Two-thirds cup is often seen in oatmeal cookie recipes, breakfast grain bowls, and rice cooker recipes for 2 servings. It equals exactly 160ml or approximately 5.4 fluid ounces.
