- 3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)

- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Beat in the eggs one at a time and add the vanilla extract until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold this into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Gently stir in chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
