In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and both brown and white granulated sugars until light and fluffy.

In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Scoop dough balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them apart.

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
