Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to distribute the leavening agents evenly, then set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract together using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until the mixture becomes light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure they are fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a smooth dough forms.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips and nuts (if using) with a spatula until evenly distributed.
Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage.
