Apple Pie Fudge

Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

• 1 cup applesauce
• 3/4 cup butter
• 2/3 cup evaporated milk
• 3 cups granulated sugar
• 2 cups Marshmallow Creme
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups confectioners' sugar (sifted)
• 1 teaspoon apple pie spice
• Nuts (optional)

Instructions

1. Grease an 8 or 9 inch square pan for thick fudge or a 13 x 9 pan for a thinner fudge.
2. Combine the first four ingredients and boil to a soft ball stage. Stir constantly because the mixture burns easily.
3. Remove from heat.
4. Add Marshmallow Creme, vanilla extract, confectioners' sugar and apple pie spice.
5. Stir in nuts, if desired. Blend well; pour into prepared pan.
6. Cool, then cut into squares.
