Pumpkin Pie Fudge Recipe

I am excited to be sharing with all of Anjanette’s readers my Pumpkin Pie Fudge. I am Candi from over at A Day in Candiland and I blog about recipes that are for the most part desserts. I am a big Pumpkin fan and a big Fudge fan, so I decided the two shall become one. Fudge is one of those recipes that seems hard but really isn’t. You usually need to work with a candy thermometer, so you will want to have one for this recipe. I did not include pecans but you can add them chopped if you want some extra crunch and flavor.

This is also a large recipe. Some fudge recipes are made in an 8 X 8 pan, this is made in a 9 X 13 pan, so its perfect for the holidays or gift giving. Just wrap them up in either a cute tin or a small plate with a bow and a cute gift tag.
