Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and cream cheese until smooth.
Add in the brown sugar and granulated sugar, and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Mix in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, ensuring everything is well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
