packed the melting wafers directly into microwave safe
container and you do not require any additional container and
it saves your time of cleaning the containers too after melting.

Do baking chips melt?
Yes, baking chips melt too and when you melt them at 350
degree in oven they melt a little and their shape does not
change a lot like chocolate chip cookies which are easy to
melt. And because baking chips are more resistant to melting
than the chocolate chip cookies many people often overheat
them in order to melt them completely but sometimes the
result of overheating comes out to be horrible. So yes baking
chips melt but not too much like chocolate chip cookies.
How do you get chocolate chips to melt?
There are 2 most common and easy ways to melt chocolate
chips one is on stove and the other one is
through oven.
1) Melting chocolate chips on stove
The first method is melting chocolate chips on stove. So in
this method all you need to do is grab a container and put it on
stove with heat on and put the chocolate chip in it. When the
chocolate chip starts melting take a spoon and gradually start
stirring till the entire chocolate chips are melted and you are
left with a nice and smooth chocolate. After that remove the
container from the stove and turnoff the stove.
2) Melting chocolate chips in Oven
To melt chocolate chips in oven just take a suitable container
and put chocolate chips in it. After that put the container in
oven which is already preheated to 350 degrees. Heat the
chocolate chips at least 5-10 minutes and if they don’t melt
completely in 10 minutes just extend the time until they are
completely melted.
Can you substitute chocolate chips for melting
chocolate?

As you know you can also melt chocolate chips to obtain
chocolate so yes they can a substitute for melting chocolates.
Why won't my chocolate chips melt?
The reason that your chocolate chips are not melting is
because you are not providing them enough heat to them. If
your chocolate chips don’t melt properly just add a little water
and then heat them more till they are melted completely. The
reason of adding water to chocolate chips is to avoid burning
them by overheating.
about this you can ask me in the comment section without
any hesitation. I will try my best to respond to every query.
