Pumpkin Walnut Fudge

Since it's fall and Halloween is right around the corner, I thought I would list this Pumpkin Recipe. Hope you enjoy!

1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup whipping cream
3 cups sugar
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 cup pumpkin
dash of salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 stick butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Combine milk, sugar, corn syrup, pumpkin, and salt in tall pan (mixture may boil over). Cook over medium high heat until boiling, stirring constantly. When mixture comes to a full boil, reduce heat and simmer until mixture comes to softball stage (about 232 degrees on a candy thermometer - takes approximately 40 minutes). Remove from heat and stire in cinnamon, allspice, butter and vanilla. Cool, then beat until thick and less glossy. Stir in walnuts and pour into a buttered plate.
