Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) for even baking.
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together baking soda, salt, and all-purpose flour. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Step 4: Gently fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Step 5: Scoop out portions of dough using a cookie scoop or measuring cup and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between cookies.
Step 6: Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges are golden and centers are soft. Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
