1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time followed by vanilla.
Gradually mix in dry ingredients until just combined, then fold in chocolate chips gently.
