Chocolate Torte Recipe

Hey I forgot that I was going to post this recipe. I thought that it was pretty easy and we had all the stuff here at the house since we have some of everything, even things you may never use. So anyway here it is:

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup corn syrup
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 cup flour
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1 tsp vanila
In a large sauce pan, melt butter and corn syrup until butter is melted. Stir in chips until melted. Add sugar and eggs, stir until well blended. Stir in flour, nuts and vanilla. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake in a buttered and floured wax paper lined 9 inch cake pan for 30-35 minutes or until center springs back to touch. (make sure to butter and flour and use wax paper to line the pans if you want it to come out) Cool in pan 10 minutes. Remove from pan. Glaze warm or cool. Chill until set. Freezes well glazed. If you can't get it out of the pan just do what I did and serve it out of the pan. I also didn't chill this or refrigerate it but if you use whipped cream to decorate it like I did it needs refrigerated if there are leftovers...
Glaze:
1/2 cup chocolate chips
2 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp corn syrup
1 tsp vanilla
Combine all ingredients in a small sauce pan and stir until melted.
