Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 cups (950 ml) white chocolate chips
- 1 cup (240 ml) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 1/2 tablespoons (37.5 ml) 100% pumpkin puree
Spices:
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon (0.625 ml) cloves
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare an 8×8 inch baking pan by lining it completely with aluminum foil, ensuring smooth coverage for easy removal later.
- In a saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, gently combine white chocolate chips with sweetened condensed milk over low heat, stirring consistently until the mixture becomes completely smooth and glossy.
- Remove from heat and introduce pumpkin puree, infusing the mixture with warm autumn spices including vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, stirring thoroughly to create a uniform, fragrant blend.
- Transfer the velvety pumpkin-chocolate mixture into the prepared foil-lined pan, using a spatula to spread evenly and create a perfectly level surface.
- Refrigerate the fudge for 4-5 hours, or until the texture becomes firm and set, allowing the flavors to meld and solidify completely.
- Once chilled and firm, lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil edges, then slice into precise square pieces ready for serving.
Notes
- Always line the pan with overhanging foil for easy removal and clean cutting of fudge squares.
- Use room temperature pumpkin puree to prevent seizing or uneven melting of chocolate mixture.
- Stir white chocolate and condensed milk continuously to avoid burning or scorching during heating process.
- For a lighter spice profile, reduce ground spices by half and taste before final mixing to customize flavor intensity.
