Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two cookie sheets.

In a nonstick pan, toast the almonds over a medium low heat, stirring constantly, for about 5-10 minutes until they have just begun to turn brown and emit a nutty aroma. Turn out onto a plate to cool.

Chop the chocolate bars into large chunks no larger than large chocolate chips and set aside.

Sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter until creamy. Add the sugars and beat until light and fluffy.
