Ingredients

2 sticks unsalted butter, plus more for pan
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate chips
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch salt
4 large eggs
2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons amaretto liqueur
1 1/2 cups walnuts
Powdered sugar, for garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Line a 9 by 9 square baking pan with parchment paper, making sure paper hangs over the edges. Grease paper with butter so the brownies don't stick. Melt butter and chocolate over a double-boiler and stir gently until smooth and shiny. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.

Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt into a mixing bowl and set aside. Whisk together eggs, sugar and amaretto in a mixing bowl until combined. Pour in chocolate mixture and continue to whisk until combined. Gradually add flour mixture, then add walnuts and incorporate with a wooden spoon. Transfer batter to baking pan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean when inserted into the middle of the pan. When done, invert onto a cutting board, remove paper and cut into squares. Garnish with powdered sugar and serve.

USE A GLASS DISH!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

INCONSISTANT REVIEWS??? I think the reason for inconsistant results is because two things were different on the show (1)... TYLER USED A GLASS DISH TO MAKE THE BROWNIES (2) TYLER USED 2X MORE AMARETTO THEN CALLED FOR HERE. ALSO, TYLER DIDN'T MEASURE ANYTHING WHEN HE MADE THESE. The batter was thin like cake batter--not as think as brownies usually are. I think the glass dish is key--things cook faster in a glass dish. Read more

Good; Made Changes
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I used a 9x13 pan and they came out perfect. Also tried it with Kahlua and it was divine.

The BEST!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made these for my husband and friends and they were a hit!! Was very glad that I looked over the reviews. Went to a 9 x 13... pan, baked for 60 minutes and went with 3 teaspoons instead of 2 on the amaretto. Would make this recipe again in a heartbeat. Took awhile to find bittersweet chocolate chips, but glad I didn't substitute them.Read more

Unpleasantly gooy
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I am a big fan of Tyler's show and recipes, but every once in awhile what you see on TV and what is posted on FoodNetwork are... not the same thing. I followed the recipe exactly with the exception of switching pecons for walnuts and adding 15 minutes more cook time. The crust was great, but the inside was so gooy that it was practically a molten cake. The flavor was great, and the gooiness didn't slow down the granddaughters on bit.Read more

Again, another winner from Tyler Florence! I finally found an easy brownie recipe that I love. Amaretto and walnuts (two of... my favorite flavors in the world)...how can you go wrong?Read more

The taste is amazing
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I LOVE these browies. However, mine also aren't quite done in the middle and my batter sunk down after I pulled it out of the... oven to cool. It also crumbles terribly when I cut it into pieces. However, it tastes Oh So Good!Read more
