Equipment

  • wooden spoon
  • cutting board

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. 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.
  3. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
  4. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt into a mixing bowl and set aside.
  5. Whisk together eggs, sugar and amaretto in a mixing bowl until combined.
  6. Pour in chocolate mixture and continue to whisk until combined. Gradually add flour mixture, then add walnuts and incorporate with a wooden spoon.
  7. 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.
  8. Garnish with powdered sugar and serve.
