I love fudge!! Fudge is one of those treats that has holiday season written all over it. And every time I eat it I am reminded of the movie How the Grinch Store Christmas with Jim Carrey and the "Fudge Dudge" fudge eating contest he has to do ha ha. I love it!! It's amazing how many different delicious and creamy fudge recipes there are out there. Every now and then fudge gets made for a Thanksgiving treat at our house. But now that I have this recipe for Pumpkin Fudge, I think fudge will be showing up a little more often for turkey day! If you like pumpkin and you like fudge, you're going to love this.Pumpkin Fudge
