Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, turn off the heat and stir in both the brown sugar and granulated sugar until combined. Let it cool slightly.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the bars to cool in the baking dish on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before using the parchment overhang to lift them out.
Cut into 16 squares and serve. Enjoy your perfectly chewy chocolate chip cookie bars!
