Pumpkin Spice Fudge

Ingredients:

1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
¾ cup sugar
½ cup canned pumpkin puree
⅔ cup sweetened condensed milk
1 stick (125g) unsalted butter, chopped
Pinch of kosher salt
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
1 cup marshmallow cream or ½ cup glucose syrup
2 cups white chocolate

Step 1: Line an 8” x 8” tin with baking paper, leave an overhang to make it easy to lift out fudge

Step 2: Combine sugars, pumpkin and milk in a saucepan over medium heat; cook for 25 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in butter, salt, spice, cream/glucose, and chocolate, cooking until melted. Place heat on low and stir a little faster for this part. Once mixed in well you’ll have a fudge-like texture (mixture will be very thick).

Step 3: Lightly coat a spatula with cooking spray to avoid fudge sticking. Spoon mixture into prepared dish, smoothing into an even layer. Cool completely at room temperature. Place in the fridge for 1 - 2 hours before cutting. Cut into squares.

TIPS

Cutting: Dip knife in hot water between each slice (wipe off any drips) or lightly coat the knife with cooking spray. Be sure to wipe any fudge off the knife between cuts.

Topping Suggestions: Sprinkle crushed ginger snap cookies, chopped pecans or a light sprinkle of pumpkin spice.

Bonus Uses: You can chop it up and add to your fave ice cream, cake or cookie mix. Another use is to melt it down along with some heavy cream and use it as a cake/dessert drizzle!

Storage: Store in an airtight container, in a cool dry place for up to 1 week or in the fridge for 4 weeks (If you don’t eat it all before then!) Be sure to use parchment paper in between layers so it doesn’t stick. Happy Thanksgiving!

Frequently asked questions

What comes in a Baketivity baking kit?

Each Baketivity baking kit includes pre-measured dry ingredients, easy step-by-step instructions, and fun educational activities designed for kids. Our recipes are created to help children learn real kitchen skills while baking something delicious with their family.

Do I need to buy additional ingredients?

You may only need to add a few fresh ingredients like eggs, butter, or milk, depending on the recipe. Most of the dry ingredients come pre-measured in the kit, making baking simple, convenient, and mess-free for kids.

What equipment do I need to use the baking kits?

Most families already have everything they need at home. Typically you'll need mixing bowls, a whisk, fork or spoon, measuring cups, and a lined baking pan. Some recipes may also require a microwave-safe bowl or oven.

What age are Baketivity baking kits best for?

Baketivity baking kits are designed for kids ages 4–16. Younger children may need a little help from a parent, while older kids can follow the instructions more independently and build confidence in the kitchen.

Do your baking kits contain nuts?

Nuts are not directly included in the recipes or ingredient lists. However, some components may be produced in facilities that also process nuts, sesame seeds, soy, and gluten, so trace amounts may be present.

Are Baketivity baking kits kosher?

Yes! All ingredients included in Baketivity baking kits are OU-certified kosher, and our facility is FDA-approved, so families can bake and enjoy their treats with confidence.

My ingredients feel hard or clumpy. Is that normal?

Yes! Our ingredients are vacuum-packed to keep them fresh, which can sometimes make them feel firm or clumpy. Simply open the bag and give it a shake, and the ingredients will loosen up and be ready to use.
