Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture and stir until just combined.
