Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer or a whisk.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until no streaks of flour remain. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped roasted almonds until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Lightly sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the top of each cookie dough ball for an extra burst of flavor.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers remain soft and slightly underbaked.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your sweet salty chocolate almond cookies fresh or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
