Chocolate Pumpkin Pudding Pie
Either blind bake a 9-inch crust, or use a graham cracker or chocolate cookie crust, and create the rest of this luscious pie on top of the stove!

Marshmallow-Peanut Butter Fudge
This is a great peanut butter fudge, that a friend of mine gave me a couple of years ago. It is VERY rich, hence the 8 dozen tiny squares. DEE-LICIOUS! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, and that's saying a lot because I am a chocolate FIEND--but this has NO chocolate in it!
