COOL WEATHER CORNMEAL CRUNCH SUET CAKES FOR THE BIRDS
Recipe #3 of suet recipes I have handwritten from somewhere at sometime. I'm sorry I cannot remember where I found these recipes. I use this particular recipe only in cold weather as the lard will break down otherwise and all you'll have is a mess.

NO-MELT SUET (FOR BIRDS)
Don't put suet out in high summer temperatures, it can spoil and melt, coating feathers. This is a tried and true suet recipe that I found in Birds and Blooms Extra, contributed by Virginia Barnard. She explains that it works very well in Oklahoma's high summer temperatures. We live in Wisconsin, where it obviously isn't quite as hot, but it has held up here, even in direct sun. The squirrels like it too, but now that we're offering other food for them, a little ways away, they aren't bothering it as much as they were at first. The recipe is written for lard, but I used saved bacon grease and it has worked fine. The next time I make it, I'm going to experiment with less or none of the sugar, as it doesn't seem necessary. But, I guess maybe the birds could have a little sweet tooth, too! Note: yield is approximate. I doubled the batch last time I made it, and filled 2 quart ziplock containers after putting some in a feeder, so I'm not exactly sure how much I started out with.

Steps:
- Melt the lard and peanut butter together, either on the stove or in the microwave.
- Combine all of the dry ingredients.
- Add the dry ingredients to the melted fats.
- The original recipe suggests pouring into a square pan about 2 inches deep, or spreading onto tree limbs. I just put it into ziplock containers and scoop it out as needed to fill a screen type of feeder (See photos). I use my cookie scoop to take it out, but then mash and break up the scoops, because otherwise the squirrels can come and take a whole scoop at once, way too easily! I don't know if it would hold up well in cake form, as I haven't tried that, but it defintely doesn't melt or make a gloppy mess.

COOL WEATHER BIRD SUET MOLDS
I have no idea where I found this recipe...I have this one and 3 others that I wrote down at the same time but did not record from where. The birds in VA seem to like this assortment. It does only work in the winter months though as too much sun will melt this suet cake.
