Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup plant-based white chocolate, chopped
  • 1/4 cup plant-based butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree

Spices and Setting

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Mix-ins

  • 1 cup fluffy marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all ingredients, ensuring the plant-based butter is softened and pumpkin puree is smooth. This prep supports a seamless mixing process later on.
  2. Melt the Base: In a large saucepan over low heat, gently melt the plant-based white chocolate and plant-based butter together, stirring frequently until fully smooth and glossy.
  3. Add Sweetness and Flavor: Stir in the brown sugar, natural vanilla extract, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, and pumpkin puree. Continue stirring until the mixture is well combined and warm.
  4. Incorporate Spices and Natural Gelling Agent: Gradually add the cinnamon, nutmeg, and natural gelling agent, stirring continuously to ensure even distribution and proper thickening of the fudge.
  5. Fold in Marshmallows: Remove the pan from heat and gently fold in the fluffy marshmallows, maintaining their soft texture within the fudge.
  6. Set and Chill: Pour the fudge mixture into a lined square pan and spread evenly. Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours until firm and set before slicing.

Notes

  • Use quality plant-based white chocolate and fresh pumpkin puree for the richest flavor.
  • Melt chocolate and butter over low heat to prevent burning or grainy texture.
  • Measure spices carefully to avoid overpowering the balance.
  • Do not skip chilling; a full set in the refrigerator ensures clean-cut pieces.
  • For neat slices, run a sharp knife under warm water before cutting.
