Instructions
Heat oven to 350ºF. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and set aside. In a separate mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla and mix. Add the flour mixture, a little at a time, and mix. Stir in chocolate chips.
Divide into 12 dough balls. Bake on parchment-lined baking sheets until golden around the edges and just set in the center, 10 to 12 minutes. Don't overcook! They continue cooking on the pan out of the oven. Let cool slightly (if you can wait) and remove from pan.

Notes
FLOUR! Everyone measures flour differently. If you tend to have a heavy hand make sure to sift your flour prior to measuring.
CHOCOLATE CHIPS. There are a lot of chocolate chips in this recipe. Please feel free to use just ¾ cup if desired!
GLUTEN OR DAIRY FREE: I use Cup4Cup for gluten free cookies. For chocolate chip cookies without butter, substitute Miyokos cultured, non-dairy butter.
------------------------------------------Make 6 Cookies: You can make 6 larger "bakery-style" cookies by dividing the dough into 6 equal balls. Bake 13 to 15 minutes to desired texture.
