Ingredients
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup evaporated milk
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 bag (12 oz) white chocolate chips
- 1 jar (7 oz) marshmallow creme (or fluff)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Optional toppings: chopped pecans, walnuts, or flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Prepare Pan – Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
- Cook Base – In a saucepan, combine sugar, butter, evaporated milk, and pumpkin puree. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 10–12 minutes until thickened.
- Add Flavor – Remove from heat, stir in white chocolate chips until melted. Add marshmallow creme, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix well until smooth.
- Set Fudge – Pour mixture into prepared pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Chill & Slice – Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours before cutting into squares.
Notes
- Use 100% pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
- Stir constantly while boiling to prevent sugar from burning.
- Add nuts or sea salt on top for extra texture and flavor.
- For clean slices, use a sharp knife warmed under hot water.
- Store in layers separated by parchment to keep pieces from sticking.
