    OK, the ganache looked fantastic when I first made it. I let it set as directed, now it's rock hard. Can I heat it again to soften?

    I would like to see the amounts of chocolate by weight, not by measurement. There can be a big difference in amounts using chopped chocolate since the degree of chopping varies greatly.
