Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a stand mixer, combine salted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing on low until fully combined, about 30 seconds.
  4. Gradually add all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to the mixture, mixing gently until you have a soft dough, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed.
  6. Scoop dough using a #40 cookie scoop and place 1.5 tablespoons onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet, 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until edges are golden brown and centers remain soft.
  8. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool fully.
