Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a round baking pan.

In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in eggs one at a time along with vanilla extract until smooth.

Gradually mix in flour and baking soda until just combined; avoid over-mixing.

Gently fold in chocolate chips.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
