Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

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

In another bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Fold in the chocolate chips.

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
