Today I finally got around to scanning some recipe clippings I've
collected over the years.
Here's a recipe I thought would be good for this time of the year.

@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format

Bailey's Irish Cream Fudge

candies

4-1/2 cups sugar
1 large can of evapoated milk
1/2 lb. butter
2 11.5 oz pkgs milk chocolate chips
1 11.5 oz pkg semi-sweet chips
2 jars marshmallow cream
2 tsp. vanilla
2/3 cup bailey's irish cream
2 cups coarse chopped nuts; optional

Put the chocolate chips, marshmallow cream, vanilla, Bailey's and nuts
into a very large bowl and set aside.
Bring butter, sugar and milk to a boil and cook slowly for 11 minutes,
stirring constantly.
Pour the milk mixture over the other ingredients and stir slowly to
blend well. (DO NOT USE A MIXER)
Pour into a 9 x 13 inch pan and chill. Makes about 5 lbs.
Note: This made a large amount and I used both a 9 x 13' pan and an
8 x 8' pan.

I'm guessing, but I would think to avoid creating little air bubbles in
fudge that should be smooth.?

When you make regular cooked fudge (sugar, water, chocolate & butter)
you beat it until it loses its shine.

My best guess is you've don't want foam or bubbles

Yes. But maybe a machine would aerate the mixture more than doing it by
hand? I can't recall at the moment, but I have run across other recipes
that bear the caution not to beat with a mixer to avoid air bubbles.
