I found this in my mother's collection of recipe clippings, from the 1960's. The only change I made was to reduce the salt to one-half teaspoon. You could probably substitute frozen chopped spinach to save time. I think these taste great at room temperature.

Tips:

Wring the spinach dry: This will help to prevent the squares from being too wet.
Cube the cream cheese: This will help it to evenly distribute throughout the batter.
Use a baking dish that is at least 9x13 inches: This will ensure that the squares have enough room to spread out and cook evenly.
Bake the squares until they are golden brown: This will help them to develop a nice crust and a fluffy center.
Let the squares cool slightly before cutting them: This will help them to hold their shape.
