Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they're evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoon-sized dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Enjoy your cookies once they've cooled slightly.
