How to Make Almond Chocolate Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon almond extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 1 cup chopped almonds and 1 cup chocolate chips.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 7-9 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
