With mixer on low speed, alternately add in flour in fourths and buttermilk in thirds, beginning and ending with the flour. Pour into prepared pan. Bake in center of oven for 1 hour or possibly till a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove to rack and cool 10 min. Invert to remove from pan and cool 20 min before frosting.
- Meanwhile make Chocolate Glaze, if you like, by melting chocolate and butter in a small saucepan or possibly microwave. Remove from heat and stir in corn syrup and water.
