This is one of our favorite size dishes in any pattern because it is so useful. A lot of people call these “brownie pans”. I like how the backstamp is #222 on these 8×8 inch Desert Dawn baking pans produced in yellow and pink. Multiply it up 2 x 2 x 2 and you get 8. It also happens to be 2 inches deep as well. We’ve seen newer 8×8 pans have the #922 instead and the handles are cut sharply instead of rounded.
