Melt the butter and let it cool slightly.
Combine melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a bowl and mix well.
Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the chocolate chips.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes (or overnight).
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is still slightly soft.
Tap the baking sheet gently on the counter after removing from the oven.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
