Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread almonds on baking sheet, and bake, stirring frequently, until golden brown (8-10 minutes). Remove almonds from pan; set aside and let cool. Turn oven up to 375°F. In a small bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, beat butter, sugar, and brown sugar at medium speed of electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg until well blended; then beat in liquer. Gradually add flour mixture, and beat at low speed until well mixed. Stir in chocolate and almonds with a spoon. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls (or use a cookie scoop) of dough 2 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until edges are golden brown (8-10 minutes). Let cookies cool on cookie sheets for 2 minutes. Remove cookies to wire rack and let cool completely.
