Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry mixture to the creamed butter and sugars, mixing until just combined.

Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
