I have a confession to make . . . I am a saver. I have a pile of things that I need to get to next to my computer. Usually this works for me. Because I either get to it or I know where it is when I finally really do need it. (Occasionally - not so good results but usually it works). Today I was looking through the pile and I found some recipes someone had given me for this blog, or maybe just because she's nice, but they're going on the blog.
So thanks Michelle H. from Regal Country for sharing. I hope you all enjoy.

An few nice things about this recipe:
Everything in it can easily be stored for at least 3 months.
Pumpkin is actually pretty good for you, high in fiber and vitamin A and low in calories (not that fudge probably qualifies as good for you by anyone's standards but hey it's something)
