I was so excited to try this recipe, but it unfortunately didn't turn out well. The fudge was too crumbly and didn't hold together.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but it turned out a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the sugar next time.

This pumpkin fudge was creamy, flavorful, and had just the right balance of spices. I added some chopped nuts for some added texture.
