Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar with a hand mixer until creamy and smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla. Mix until fully combined.
Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt on top of the butter mixture. Lightly mix the dry ingredients with a fork, then stir everything together until almost combined.
Add the chocolate chips and continue mixing until the flour is just incorporated. Let the cookie dough rest for 5 minutes.
Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet using a cookie scoop or tablespoon.
Bake for about 9 minutes and check for doneness. The cookies should look set and lightly golden. If needed, continue baking in 1 minute increments until done.
Sprinkle sea salt on the warm cookies if you want an extra touch.
