Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
Gently fold in the semisweet chocolate chips with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly undercooked. Do not overbake.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
