Pumpkin Spice Fudge
recipe found over at Aunt Peg's Recipe Box

2 cups sugar

1 cup brown sugar, packed

3/4 cups butter

2/3 cup evaporated milk

1/2 cup pumpkin puree

1-1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice

1 (12 oz) pkg white chocolate chips (or white chocolate melting chips)

1 (7 oz) jar Marshmallow creme

1 cup chopped pecans 

1-1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Butter a 9 x 13 baking dish or line with parchment paper. Combine sugar, brown sugar, butter, evaporated milk, pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice in a heavy saucepan: cook over medium heat until the sugars dissolve, then continue cooking until the mixture begins to boil, stirring constantly. Boil until a candy thermometer reaches the the soft-ball stage (234 ~ 243 degrees).

Remove from heat, stir in the white chips until they are all melted and mixture is smooth. Add in the marshmallow creme, pecans and vanilla, mix well. Pour into prepared pan, and cool to room temperature. Cut into squares, store refrigerated in an air tight container.
