Theoretically, these are quick enough to make during your lunch break.

Preheat the oven to 375F with the oven rack in the center.
Add butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large mixing bowl if using a hand mixer). Briefly beat on medium speed, just until butter forms pea-sized clumps. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Add to the butter mixture and beat on medium speed until the flour starts to absorb into the dough. Add chocolate chips and mix just until evenly distributed.
Using a 2-ounce scoop, drop 12 dough balls each onto two Non Stick Sheet Pans, leaving some room for the cookies to spread.
Bake until edges are golden brown, 6-8 minutes. Let cool 1-2 minutes on sheet pan, then transfer to a platter.
