Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips gently with a spatula.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a bun comes out clean.
Allow the buns to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the buns warm or store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
