Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF, line two large baking sheets with parchment paper, set aside.
- In a medium bowl add both flours, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until combined, set aside.
- In a large bowl using hand mixer or paddle attachment of stand mixer, cream together butter, coconut oil, and sugars, until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Add in egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract until combined.
- Add in dry ingredients slowly, on low-medium speed until dough comes together. Using large wooden spoon, stir in chopped almonds and dark chocolate chunks.
- Using large cookie scoop (or rounded tablespoon) scoop dough balls and place on prepared cookie sheets, leaving about 3-4 inches of room between. --I like to space my cookie dough in alternating rows of 2 and 3, to make sure there is enough room for the cookies to spread a little.
- Sprinkle cookie dough with coarse sea salt and bake for 8-10 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 1 minute before transferring to wire rack to cool completely, adding more salt if you wish.--To keep cookies soft, don't bake longer than 10 minutes. Even if they look a little underdone, they will set upon cooling. If you prefer a crispier cookie, bake an extra 1-2 minutes.

Notes
- *You may use all whole wheat white flour, instead of mixing the two flours, however your cookies will be slightly more bread-like in texture. You can also use just all-purpose, just add 2 more tablespoons of flour if going this route.
- *You may use all butter instead of coconut oil, the texture of the cookies will only change slightly. I do NOT recommend using all coconut oil however. The cookies will likely turn out greasy and not hold up.
- Cookies will keep fresh about 5 days in airtight container. Baked cookies may also be stored in the freezer, tightly wrapped and stored in airtight container, about 1-3 months. Thaw at room temperature.
