“Bear Sign” (Or… a more polite name: “Nut & Berry Shortbread Bars”)During the off-season, when salmon aren’t readily available up north, Alaskan bears eat mainly nuts and berries.

This is how we make them, except here I will substitute Borden's Nonesuch Mincemeat, or Robertson's (preferred) in a jar instead of homemade mincemeat. You can substitute your favorite shortening (vegetable works great) while I will use rendered leaf… |
