Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add in the egg and vanilla extract, then mix until fully combined.
Pour in the Nutella and continue mixing until the Nutella is well incorporated into the wet ingredients.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a cookie dough forms.
Fold in the chopped almonds and chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly undercooked. Be careful not to overbake.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
