Pre-heat oven to 375°F/190°C. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat sugar with butter until smooth. Scrape down the sides, then add the eggs and vanilla and beat well until light and fluffy. Mix in the flour on low speed until only almost combined, then add the chocolate chips. Continue to fold the batter until the flour is completely incorporated and the chocolate is distributed. Do not overmix.
