If you are into fudge, this recipe is so freaking good.\u00a0 I love maple flavored fudge, with walnuts, and this recipe fits right into that, with the addition of pumpkin.\u00a0 Perfect for the Autumn.<\/p>\n

I like to individually wrap these for Halloween.\u00a0 You can get the papers at places like AC Moore or Michaels Arts and Crafts. I usually buy these at SugarCraft.com<\/a> as you can get various papers for almost anything at great prices.<\/p>\n

Maple Pumpkin Fudge<\/h2>\n

2 cups sugar
\n1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
\n3\/4 cup butter
\n2\/3 cup evaporated milk
\n1\/2 cup canned pumpkin
\n1 1\/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
\n1 12 ounce package white chocolate chips
\n1 7 ounce jar marshmallow creme
\n1 cup chopped nuts – pecans or walnuts
\n1 1\/2 teaspoons maple extract<\/p>\n

In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, mix sugar, brown sugar, butter, evaporated milk, pumpkin and pumpkin pie spices.\u00a0 Stir constantly, making sure sugar is dissolved.\u00a0 Once the mixture begins to boil, continue stirring constantly.\u00a0 Boil this until a candy thermometer reaches the soft ball stage between 234F and 243F degrees.\u00a0 I usually go for about 237, if possible.<\/p>\n

Remove from the heat and stir in the the chocolate chips.\u00a0 Once the chocolate chips have melted, add in the marshmallow creme, nuts and maple.\u00a0 Mix well and pour into a lined or buttered pan — use a 13×9 cake pan, if you have it.\u00a0 Otherwise, pour it into 2 8×8 pans.\u00a0 Allow to cool and then cut into squares.\u00a0 Store in an air tight container, and refrigerate up to 10 days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
