Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts (if using) with a spatula until evenly distributed.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these delightful chocolate chip cookies with a cold glass of milk or share them with family and friends!
