Pumpkin Fudge
Ingredients
  • 3
    cups sugar
  • 3/4
    cup butter
  • 1
    5 ounce can evaporated milk
  • 1/2
    cup canned pumpkin
  • 1
    10 ounce package cinnamon-flavored pieces
  • 1
    7 ounce jar marshmallow creme
  • 3/4
    cup chopped walnuts, toasted
Directions

1. Line a 13x9x2-inch baking pan with foil, extending foil over edges of pan. Butter foil; set pan aside.

2. In a 3-quart heavy saucepan combine sugar, butter, evaporated milk, and pumpkin. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until mixture boils. Clip a candy thermometer to side of pan. Reduce heat to medium-low; continue boiling at a moderate, steady rate, stirring frequently, until thermometer registers 234 degrees F, soft-ball stage (20 to 25 minutes). (Adjust heat as necessary to maintain a steady boil.)

3. Remove saucepan from heat; remove thermometer from saucepan. Stir in cinnamon-flavored pieces until melted. Stir in marshmallow creme and walnuts.

4. Immediately spread fudge evenly in prepared pan. Score into squares while warm. Let fudge cool to room temperature. When fudge is firm, use foil to lift it out of pan. Cut into squares. Cover tightly and chill for up to 1 week. Do not freeze. Makes about 96 pieces.

Haven't tried this yet but-- y'know what tastes REALLY good with pumpkin and its associated spices? CHOCOLATE! I might mix in chocolate chips with this near the end of prep time (not to melt them entirely.)

On your recipes you need to specify such as NOT red hots but cinnamon chips like chocolate chips . I had no idea they made cinnamon chips. The fudge was PINK, SUGERY, red hots did not melt down . A real flop and waste of money and time. Very disappointed !

Why do people complain about a recipe when they fail to use the requested ingredients? I have made variations of this wonderful fudge for years, usually using butterscotch chips and pumpkin pie spice. My husband loves this one.Thanks
