Recipe: Pudding Fudge (using pudding mix)

PUDDING FUDGE

1 cup white granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 (4-serving-size) pkg butterscotch or chocolate pudding mix (not instant)
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup chopped pecans, or other nuts
1 Tbsp butter or margarine

In a saucepan, dissolve sugars and (dry) pudding mix in evaporated milk. Cook, stirring constantly, over low heat until soft ball forms when dropped in cold water, or until temperature reaches 234 degrees F.

Add nuts and butter, and beat until cool or until it begins to thicken.

Pour into greased pan or drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. It will harden as it cools to room temperature.
