Combine melted butter, sugar, flour, baking soda and cornflakes; a
processor makes it easy. Spread on bottom of buttered 8-inch pan, pressing
firmly. Cover with cheese topping and nuts. Bake in preheated 375 deg F
oven for 40 minutes. Cut into squares when cool.
Cheese Topping: Combine all ingredients, blending well; again, the
