Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a silicone spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look set but still slightly soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Awesome Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
