2 tablespoons light corn syrup

1
Lightly butter the sides of a heavy 2 to 3-quart saucepan. In it, combine, sugar, milk, corn syrup, pumpkin and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to a boil. Then cover the saucepan for 2 or 3 minutes. Uncover, clip on candy thermometer and continue to cook over medium heat, stir as little as possible - just enough to keep the pumpkin solids from settling to the bottom of the pan. When mixture registers 235u00b0F on the candy thermometer (soft ball stage), remove from heat. Add spices and butter that has been cut into 1/2 inch cubes. Do not stir or jar the mixture as butter is added or as the mixture cools. When the mixture has cooled to 110u00b0F, beat the mixture until it is very thick and loses some of its gloss. Use an electric mixer on low speed for about 8 minutes or beat vigorously with wooden spoon. Stir in nuts. Pour immediately into buttered 9-inch square pan. Score fudge while warm then cut when firm into about 81 pieces.
