Pumpkin Candy
Submitted By: Trent W.
Here's one more last-minute treat for Thanksgiving. It was my grandfather's favorite candy as a child. The recipe is common to Texas and parts of the Southwest. I hope you enjoy this candy as much as my grandfather did.
Makes about 2 1/2 dozen pieces
1 cup pumpkin
1 cup sugar
1 3/4 cups shredded coconut (17 oz. bag)
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
In a 2 qt. saucepan, combine the sugar, 1 1/4 cups coconut and the spices. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the saucepan (about 18-20 minutes).
Turn mixture onto a buttered platter. Allow to cool.
Using about 2 tsp. of the mixture each time, shape into balls or
oblong shapes.
Roll the balls in the remaining 1/2 cup of coconut to coat.
Cover and store the candy in the refrigerator.
