Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of fine sea salt.

In a large mixing bowl, cream ¾ cup of unsalted butter with ½ cup of granulated sugar and ¾ cup of light brown sugar for 3–5 minutes until fluffy.

Add 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

Gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined.

Fold in 1 ½ cups of chocolate chips and optional sprinkles.

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches of space between each.

Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are soft.

Let cookies sit for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
