pumpkin fudge
(2 RATINGS)
I found this recipe in my local newspaper, written by an Amish lady, that writes a column every week. Her stories are so interesting, and she always includes a recipe. This was posted in last week's column. I made it and shared it with friends and they all loved it. Tastes like pumpkin pie.

How To Make pumpkin fudge

Step 2When mixture registers 232 degrees F (110 degrees C) on candy thermometer, or forms a soft ball when dropped into cold water, remove pan from heat. Stir in pumpkin pie spice, vanilla and butter. Cool to lukewarm (110 degrees F or 43 degrees on candy thermometer.)
