Easy Pumpkin Pie Fudge
Easy Pumpkin Pie Fudge
If you’ve tried to make fudge before and found it to be difficult, then this Easy Pumpkin Pie Fudge is the recipe for you! Luckily we’re getting into that time of year where the weather is cooler, so heat and humidity will hopefully not be too much of a factor. I’ve never had a problem with this fudge, and it’s always such a nice fall treat!
Easy Pumpkin Pie Fudge
Ingredients
- 3 cups of sugar
- 1/2 can of evaporated milk
- 1/3 cup of corn syrup
- 1 stick of butter
- 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp of pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, mix pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, sugar, corn syrup and evaporated milk. Stir occasionally, but be sure to mix all ingredients well.
- Mixture will begin boiling. If it boils too close to the top reduce the heat slightly.
- Continue cooking until mixture reaches the soft ball stage (235-245 degrees). Soft ball stage is when a small drop of syrup forms a ball when dropped into cold water, but is soft and flattens once removed from the water. When mixture reaches this stage, remove from heat.
- Take the butter and grease the inside of a glass baking dish. If you want thicker fudge, use a smaller dish. Or you can use a large dish for thinner fudge.
- Add the remainder of the butter and stir until mixture starts to lose it's sheen.
- Pour mixture into buttered baking dish and allow to cool and set completely.
 
My son LOVES this Easy Pumpkin Pie Fudge and I almost have to pull him away from it. If you don’t have a candy thermometer, and you don’t feel real comfortable with the soft ball stage of candy, try THIS ONE. It’s a great little gadget that every kitchen should have.
