As a child my favorite snack cake to buy at the convenient store was “Old Fashioned Gingerbread or better known as Bear Track” does anyone have the recipe? not Stage Plank but the texture was between a cake and a cookie made in Tx & Louisana by the Malrays

I believe this may be the recipe I’ve been looking for. If this is the correct recipe, I got it off a 1 lb. box of Domino’s Sugar purchased in the BX in San Vito, Italy in 1979 or 1980 when I was there. I loved the recipe because the cookies stayed soft and were delicious! I misplaced my recipe card in 1996 and was devastated. I’m anxious to try this recipe. I believe it’s the right one! Thank you!
