Steps

Whisk butter and sugars.
Whisk melted butter with both sugars until smooth. Whisk in eggs and vanilla until pale and glossy, about 1 minute.
Fold dry ingredients and chips.
Stir flour, baking soda, and salt together, then fold into the wet ingredients with a spatula until no streaks remain. Fold in chocolate chips.
Cover and chill the dough.
Cover and chill the dough for at least 30 minutes — overnight is even better.
Heat oven and scoop dough.
Heat oven to 375°F. Scoop 3-tbsp balls onto parchment-lined sheet pans, spacing 2 inches apart.
Bake and cool cookies.
Bake until edges are golden but centers look underdone, about 11 minutes. Sprinkle with flaky salt and cool on the pan 5 minutes.
