Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir to thoroughly mix the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sweetener, almond milk, olive oil, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined.
Add the eggs to the wet ingredients and beat until light and fluffy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. The dough will be sticky.
Fold in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Divide the dough in half and transfer onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape each dough half into a log approximately 10 inches long and 2 inches wide.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the logs are firm and lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the logs to cool for about 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
Using a sharp knife, cut the logs diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices.
Return the slices to the baking sheet, laying them cut side up, and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes until they are crisp and golden.
Cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
