Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
