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.
