Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

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

In another bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

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

Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, 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 to cool completely.
