I understood the directions to be a weight measurement, so just went by the ounces as they were marked on the bars of chocolate I bought.

For the dates and chocolate, is 14 ounces a volume measurement (1.5 c) or a weight measurement (almost 1 lb!!)? I might have made this wrong.

I am not sure I want to buy the book as I have too many cookbooks, but use them rarely.
