1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   Tip: For easy cleanup, use a silicone mat.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, confectioner's sugar, salt, cinnamon, and ginger.

   Tip: Make sure to incorporate the spices evenly for the best flavor.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, melted butter, and milk.

   Tip: Whisking helps incorporate the ingredients well.

4. 4

   Gradually pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth dough forms.

   Tip: Don't overmix, as this can lead to tough cookies.

5. 5

   Fold in the chopped ruby chocolate chips.

   Tip: Aim for a mix of chunky and smooth chocolate for the best effect.

6. 6

   Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between each cookie.

   Tip: Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookies.

7. 7

   Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.

   Tip: Keep an eye on them, as the baking time may vary depending on your oven.

   Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.

   Tip: Allow the cookies to set before transferring to a wire rack.
