2. In a smaller bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, milk, chocolate syrup, and vanilla extract until combined.  Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until incorporated.  The batter may be slightly lumpy, but that's alright.  Whisk in the butter mixture until combined.
