Directions:
In a heavy saucepan, combine sugars and corn syrup. Gradually stir in evaporated milk. Cook, stirring, until mixture reaches softball stage (236 degrees). Remove from heat. The mixture will look curdled.

Stir in pumpkin and spices. Add butter and vanilla. Place pan in cold water. Cool mixture to 100 degrees. Beat mixture vigorously until thick, about 15 minutes. The fudge will not be very thick but will no longer look curdled.

Drop by spoonful into two longs onto a greased cookie sheet. Roll longs into chopped pecans if desired. Chill until firm. Cut longs into slices.
