Those of you who enjoyed my no-thermometer-needed easy fudge recipe will love this Fall-flavored version!

Pumpkin Spice Fudge

Fall is the best time of the year for food, especially desserts! Pumpkin spice can be added to just about anything (see my Pumpkin cheesecake or pumpkin chocolate chip cookies as prime examples) and as the weather turns chilly it’s so cozy to just hole up in the kitchen and get baking. I love experimenting with Fall ingredients and could spend all day every day making pumpkin and apple infused desserts. This pumpkin fudge recipe is a recent favorite of mine, it’s simple, made on the stovetop, no thermometer needed. Also it’s a pumpkin fudge made without marshmallow fluff — I’ve just never been a huge fan of marshmallow fluff in my fudge.

We are using a bit of pumpkin puree in this pumpkin fudge for flavor, but what really gives it that cozy fall spice is the spices that we’ll be adding. You’ll need 1 ½ teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice, but if you don’t feel like running out to the store to it you can follow my recipe for homemade pumpkin spice. I always like to make this in bulk and keep a stash in my spice drawer. As for the pumpkin, when you are buying this at the store make sure to grab pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling (which contains other ingredients that are unnecessary for our fudge). This recipe only uses a small bit of pumpkin (¼ cup) so if you’re looking to use up the rest of the can I recommend you check out some of my other pumpkin recipes (I highly recommend you try the pumpkin cupcakes!).
