It’s a perfect fall dessert that brings joy to any gathering. First, grab an 8x8-inch square baking dish. Line it with parchment paper or spray it lightly with cooking spray. This step helps the fudge come out easily later. Make sure the paper hangs over the edges a bit. This will help when you lift the fudge out. Next, take a microwave-safe bowl and add the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Heat this mixture in the microwave. Do it in 30-second bursts. Stir after each burst until it melts and looks smooth. This should take about 1 to 2 minutes. Be careful not to overheat it. Once your chocolate mixture is melted, add the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Stir well until everything blends together into a smooth and creamy mix. The spices and pumpkin will give the fudge its lovely fall flavor. It should smell amazing! Now, if you want to add nuts, fold in the chopped pecans or walnuts at this stage. They add a nice crunch. Pour the fudge mixture into your prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it evenly across the dish. Make sure it fills the corners well. Finally, place the fudge in the fridge. Let it chill for 2 to 4 hours. You want it to be firm and set before cutting. When it's ready, lift it out using the parchment paper. Cut it into squares or rectangles for serving. Enjoy your tasty treat! To get the best texture for your fudge, use high-quality white chocolate chips. They melt better and taste great. When melting, check frequently to avoid burning. Stir the mix well after adding the pumpkin and spices. This helps blend everything smoothly. If you want a creamier fudge, add a bit more sweetened condensed milk. You can also try using a food processor for a super smooth mix. Store your fudge in an airtight container. This keeps it fresh and tasty. Place a layer of parchment paper between the fudge pieces to prevent sticking. If you are storing it in the fridge, it will last for about two weeks. For longer storage, keep it in the freezer. Just remember to wrap it tightly! You can make this fudge a few days in advance. Just follow all the steps, let it chill, and store it. This works out great for holiday gatherings or parties. The flavors will deepen as it sits. It's always nice to have a sweet treat ready when guests come over! {{image_2}} You can change the flavor of this fudge to fit your taste. Add a splash of maple syrup for a richer taste. Try adding a bit of orange zest for a fresh twist. For those who love chocolate, you can mix in dark chocolate chips. This adds a nice contrast to the white chocolate. If you want a nut-free version, simply skip the nuts. You can also use seeds instead. Sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds work well. They add crunch without the nuts. This way, everyone can enjoy the fudge. For a healthier take, use alternative sweeteners. You can try honey or agave syrup. Both will give you a sweet taste without refined sugar. Just remember to adjust the amount since these sweeteners can be sweeter than regular sugar. To keep your fudge fresh, use an airtight container. Place parchment paper between layers if you stack them. This prevents sticking. Store the fudge in the fridge to keep it firm and tasty. Yes, you can freeze this fudge! Cut it into squares first. Wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Then, place them in a freezer-safe bag. This way, you can enjoy it later. It stays good in the freezer for up to 3 months. When stored in the fridge, your fudge lasts about 2 weeks. If you freeze it, check for frostbite after 3 months. To enjoy its best flavor, eat it within that time. Yes, you can use dark chocolate if you prefer. Dark chocolate adds a rich taste. However, it will change the fudge's color and flavor. If you want a sweeter fudge, stick with white chocolate. To boost the pumpkin flavor, use more pumpkin puree. Start with an extra half cup. You can also add a splash of pumpkin extract for a stronger taste. This will make your fudge taste like fall. If you don't have sweetened condensed milk, try coconut milk. Reduce it down to a thick cream. You can also use evaporated milk with some sugar added. This gives a similar sweetness and creaminess. Yes, this fudge is gluten-free. All the ingredients are safe for gluten-free diets. Just make sure your chocolate chips are labeled gluten-free. Absolutely! You can add cinnamon or nutmeg for more warmth. Try a pinch of ginger for a fun twist. Just adjust the spices to your taste. The fudge takes about 2 to 4 hours to set in the fridge. I recommend checking after 2 hours. It should feel firm but not hard. This post covered how to make pumpkin fudge, from ingredients to storage tips. You learned about the best ingredients, easy steps, and lots of variations.

Instructions
 

Prepare an 8x8-inch square baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or spraying it lightly with cooking spray. This will make it easier to remove the fudge later.
