In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter until fluffy [about 3 minutes]. Add in the sugar and beat for another 5 minutes. Next, add in the eggs, one at a time, making sure each egg is well incorporated before moving on to the next. Add in the flour and buttermilk, alternating with each, starting and ending with the flour. Scrape down the sides, add in the vanilla, and give one last little mix. Divide batter evenly among the pans and bake for 25-27 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to rest in the pans until turning them out on a cooling rack. Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and microwave in 30 second increments, stirring each time, until chocolate chips are melted.
