These brownies are a great way to use up leftover amaretto. They're also a great dessert to make for parties or potlucks.

I'm not a huge fan of amaretto, but I really enjoyed these brownies. The flavor is subtle and it doesn't overpower the chocolate.

I love the texture of these brownies. They're fudgy and moist, but they're not too dense.

The amaretto flavor in these brownies is perfect. It's not too strong and it doesn't overpower the chocolate.
