Chocolate chip cookies

1 cup soft butter
¾ cup sugar
¾ cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 ¼ cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 pkg. semisweet chocolate chips

Beat butter, sugars, eggs and vanilla until fluffy. Add dry ingredients, mix. Add chips. Drop 2 inches apart on ungreased sheet, bake at 375 for 10 minutes.

I also like to add 1 cup chocolate chips with 1 cup dried cranberries and 1 cup walnuts or pecans.
