Base - Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Spray a 9-inch (23 cm) square pan with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine flour and brown sugar. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Press into bottom of pan. Bake until lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly.

Variation: Melt 2 squares semi-sweet chocolate with 1 tsp (5 mL) corn or canola oil. Drizzle over cooled squares. Let chocolateset before cutting into squares.
