Quickly stir in the white chocolate chips, marshmallow creme, and vanilla extract. Stir vigorously for 1 minute or until white chocolate chips are melted. Immediately spread into prepared pan.

Amazon Product Recommendation: This pumpkin fudge recipe is easy, but experience has taught me that making fudge can be a challenge if you are not using a candy thermometer. A good quality thermometer is a must for any candy making recipe. If you don't have a candy thermometer, now is the time to treat yourself to one and make this fool-proof fudge. Taylor Classic Line Glass Candy and Deep Fry Thermometer
