Ingredient Notes:

Fresh yeast: Helps the dough rise and develop flavor.
Granulated sugar: Sweetens the buns and activates the yeast.

Salt: Balances the sweetness of the dough.
Chocolate chips: Adds a delicious burst of chocolate in every bite.

In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, yeast, sugar, butter, and vanilla. Let sit for 10 minutes until foamy.
Stir in the baking powder and salt.
Gently fold the chocolate chips into the dough until evenly distributed.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover airtightly, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour.

Divide the dough into equal portions and roll into smooth balls. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
Cover with a towel and let rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush the tops of the buns with milk. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.

Immediately after removing from the oven, brush the hot buns once more with the remaining milk.
Let the buns cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
