I had to stop in today to give you a really fabulous Pumpkin Pie Fudge recipe. My friend Char recently shared this with me and I can’t stop making it and eating it. I think this is absolutely perfect for the season. You can make this from Halloween straight through Thanksgiving, or even Christmas if you want! It truly delivers all the flavor and fun of pumpkin pie in a neat little piece of fudge. Who can ask for anything better than that?! Happy Halloween!
PUMPKIN PIE FUDGE
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2/3 cup evaporated milk
- 1/2 can mashed, canned pumpkin
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 12 ounces vanilla baking chips
- 2 cups miniature marshmallows
- 1/3 cup chopped nuts
- 1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
Line an 8-inch square pan with aluminum foil and grease foil.
Lightly grease bottom and sides of a medium saucepan with butter. Combine sugar, milk, pumpkin, butter, salt and spice in the saucepan. Stirring constantly over medium high heat, bring mixture to a boil and boil for 12 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in baking chips and marshmallows until melted. Add nuts and vanilla and pour into prepared pan. Chill until set. Cut into squares. Cover and store in the refrigerator.
