  It sounds like you're talking about biscotti. Very popular here in coffee
  town (Seattle). And relatively easy to make. I have one for orange-almond
  biscotti that I'll post for you later (don't have it with me today!). The
  following is one I haven't tried yet; but plan to make for the holidays. It
  was posted in Oct. by J. Floriano. Although it calls for walnuts, I'm sure
  there would be no problem using almonds instead.
   1. Preheat oven to 350. Place walnuts on a cookie sheet & toast until
  golden, about 10 min. Let cool and chop coarsely 2. In a double boiler,
  melt choc. & butter together. Remove from heat and stir until smooth. Let
  cool 10 min.
   3. Sift together the flour & baking powder. In a large bowl, beat eggs
  lightly. Gradually beat in sugar. Add orange zest. Stir in cooled choc.
  until blended. Stir in the flour and baking powder until incorporated. Fold
  in chopped walnuts. Divide dough in half, wrap in plastic wrap and refrig.
  at least 1 hour or overnight.
   4. Butter large cookie sheet & preheat oven 350. Shape each half of dough
  into a 14-by-2 1/2 in. log. Place 4 inches apart on sheet. Smooth tops and
  sides with rubber spatula. Bake 40-45 min., Or until logs are firm when
  pressed in the center. Remove the baking sheet from oven. Don't turn off
  oven.
   5. Slide logs onto a cutting board. With a large knife, cut each log
  diagonally into 1/2 in slices. Stand the slices upright on edge on the
  cookie sheet. Return to oven and bake for 15 mins., Or until crisp.
  
  Transfer to wire racks to cool completely. You might also post a request
  under the topic RR Biscotti, as I have seen several other recipe variations
  from time to time here.
