Tips:

Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is a good choice.
Toast the almonds before using them. This will enhance their flavor and make them more crunchy.
Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bars tough.
Bake the bars until they are just set in the center. Overbaking will make them dry.
Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
