Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, packed brown sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy and well-combined.
Add the eggs one at a time to the wet mixture, beating well after each addition.
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until fully combined.
Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate morsels and chopped nuts (if using) with a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown and the centers appear set.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your classic Toll House cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
