Notes
Ganache can be kept in the refrigerator for up to two weeks or stored in the freezer for no more than 3 months. To do so, allow the ganache to completely cool, then transfer it to a resealable container and tuck it away.
When you want to use the ganache, thaw it overnight in the fridge. It will still be pretty hard, so you’ll need to leave it in a warm place for a couple hours, or you can warm it gently in the microwave. Heat in a microwave-safe bowl in 10 second increments, stirring in between.
Do not re-freeze ganache! If ganache has been thawed, it should be eaten within a week.
