For a more intense amaretto flavor, brush the baked and cooled brownie layer with an additional 2 tablespoons of amaretto liqueur before frosting. Ensure the butter is properly softened to achieve a smooth and creamy frosting. To prevent the chocolate from seizing while melting, use a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a simmering pot of water instead of direct heat.
