Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

  2. Step 2

    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.

  3. Step 3

    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.

  4. Step 4

    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.
