Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

In a medium-size bowl, using an electric mixer set at medium speed, beat together the butter, sugar, espresso powder, vanilla extract and salt until the mixture is fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the cocoa and flour until well blended. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Spread the dough into a foil-lined, 10-by-15-inch jellyroll pan. Sprinkle almonds over the top, pressing them in lightly with your fingertips.

Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until the dough is set and the almonds are golden brown. Let cool before cutting into 1 ½-inch squares.
