How to make the best ever Sweet Potato Pie FUDGE..

I don’t know what it is, but whenever the holiday season hit I crave fudge. Somehow, I’ve made myself believe that it’s not truly a holiday season, if I can’t have an assortment of fudge. I’m talking vanilla fudge, chocolate fudge, and  my new favorite… Sweet Potato Pie Fudge!

I came up with the idea of sweet potato pie fudge last year. I was browsing through several magazine, and I came across a recipe for pumpkin fudge. I loved the idea, but I knew that I would love the candy even more if I had used sweet potato instead of pumpkin. After a few test runs in the kitchen, it wasn’t long before I had made the perfect batch of creamy sweet potato pie fudge. My family, and I fell in love with the recipe, and I just know that y’all will too!

Try it out for yourself!

(Attention..In the video I said the mixture needs to reach 260 F. It actually has to reach 240 F , NOT 260 F.)
