    2       c            Unbleached flour

   or walnuts. Grease and flour 8x8x2-inch baking pan.
   Spoon in batter and spread evenly. Bake in a preheated
   350 F oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until knife inserted
   in center comes out clean. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Cool in
   pan and cut into squares. NOTE: Can also be baked in
   9-inch square pan, but brownies will be thinner. Bake
