Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped dark chocolate (if using) until evenly distributed in the cookie dough.
Using a large cookie scoop or your hands, scoop out roughly 4-5 tablespoons of dough per cookie. Roll each portion into a ball and place it on the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 3 inches of space between cookies to allow for spreading.
Gently flatten each ball slightly with the palm of your hand to help them spread while baking.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look just set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
