Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer for best results, but you can also mix by hand.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the pure 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 just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips 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 to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will look slightly underbaked but will continue to set as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage, and enjoy the comforting tastes of these Village Chocolate Chip Cookies!
