Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

In a large bowl, cream together your softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until it's nice and fluffy. Add your eggs one at a time, beating well after each one. Mix in the vanilla extract.

In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold this into your butter mixture until you get a cohesive dough. Fold in the chocolate chips at the end, distributing them evenly.

Line your baking sheet with parchment. Scoop the dough into balls about ¾ inch across and space them about 2–3 inches apart on the sheet. Give each one a gentle press.

Bake for 10–12 minutes at 350°F until the edges turn golden.
