Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt until fluffy and light.
  4. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, blending well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Use a large cookie scoop to drop cookie dough balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  2. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

For additional flavor, consider adding chopped nuts, colorful sprinkles, or even a dollop of cheesecake filling for stuffed cookies. Store cookies in an airtight container for up to a week.
