Preheat the oven to 350?F (175?C).

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

In another bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

Fold in the chocolate chips and Easter-themed sprinkles if using.

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
