Instructions
  1. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal.

  4. Stir in chocolate chips, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Continue stirring constantly until chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in pecans or walnuts, if desired.
  6. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking 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. Enjoy!

Notes

For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a subtle kick. Store leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
