Pumpkin Pecan Fudge

    My mother's first attempt at making "pumpkin pecan fudge". The fudge was delicious; thick almost like divinity, yet had a creamy, soft taste. This will now be present at all special occaisions!

    Pumpkin Pecan Fudge

    3 cups sugar
    3/4 cup melted butter
    2/3 cup evaporated milk
    1/2 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling!)
    2 tablespoons corn syrup
    1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
    1 (12 ounce) package white chocolate morsels
    1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme
    1 cup chopped pecans, toasted
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    Stir together first 6 ingredients in a 3 1/2 quart saucepan over medium high heat, and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Cook, stirrin constantly, until a candy thermometer registers 234 degrees (soft ball stage) or for about 12 minutes.

    Remove pan from heat; stir in remaining ingredients until well blended. Pour into a greased aluminum foil-lined 9-inch square pan. Let stand 2 hours or until completely cool; cut fudge into squares.

    Enjoy!!
