  • 1 14 ounce can Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 12 ounces Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir frequently until completely melted and smooth.
  3. Add sweetened condensed milk; stir well to combine.
  4. Add chocolate chips, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Stir constantly over low heat until chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Be careful not to burn.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in pecans or walnuts, if desired.
  6. Pour fudge into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  8. Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

Store leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
