Pumpkin Pie Fudge

 

This is some very ugly fudge but it tastes great and is easy to make
What you need:

  • 3 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 Tbs light corn syrup
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional, I don't add these)
Directions:
  1. Butter or grease an 8x8 inch pan.
  2. In a 3 quart sauce pan, mix together sugar, milk, corn syrup, pumpkin and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium and continue boiling. DO NOT STIR.
  3. When mixture registers at 232° on a candy thermometer, or forms a soft ball when dropped into cold water, remove from heat. Stir in pumpkin spice, vanilla, butter and nuts if you are using them. 
  4. Cool to lukewarm (110°) then beat mixture until it is thick and loses some of it's gloss.
  5. Quickly pour into greased  pan and cut when firm.

Sugar cookies

This is my favorite Sugar cookie recipe, they taste great and hold their shape very well. I have made sugar cookies in the past where I have used very detailed cookie cutters and the cookies would just bake into little blobs that didn't come close to resembling the shape of the cookie cutter. This recipe allows the shape to hold incredibly well. This recipe makes a large amount of cookies close to 5 dozen. Ingredients: 2 cups butter, softened 2 cups white sugar 4 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 5 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt Directions: In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cover, and chill dough for at least one hour (or overnight). Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Roll out dough on floured surface 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Cut into shapes with any cookie cutter. Place cookies 1 inch apart on un greased cookie sheets. Bake
