Add butter and both sugars to a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Cream until light and fluffy.

While the butter is creaming, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and the salt in a medium-sized bowl.

Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl with a rubber spatula, making sure everything is mixed together evenly. Stir in the chocolate chips.
