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 a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
