Preheat the oven to 375º and line a baking sheet with parchment.
Cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy, approximately 5 minutes.
Add in the eggs one at a time and whisk.
Pour in the vanilla and whisk to combine.
Pour in the flour, baking soda, and salt and fold in to combine until the flour is just incorporated.
To the batter, fold in the chocolate chips and almonds (optional).
Form the dough into a large ball. Add a little extra flour to the surface of the ball so it does not become tacky or stick.
Divide the dough into two even balls and shape into two loaves on the baking sheet.
Place in the oven and bake for 35 minutes. Let cool before slicing.
