Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, blending until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips gently.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading evenly.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
