1. Truffles
One of the easiest ways to use leftover chocolate ganache is to make truffles. All you have to do is to roll chilled ganache into balls and roll the balls on cocoa powder or nuts and make bite-sized truffles. These truffles are perfect if you are craving a sweet snack or a post-dinner sweet.
2. Chocolate mousse
Melt the ganache in a double boiler, add whipped cream and make a smooth and creamy chocolate mousse with your leftover ganache. You can also layer the mousse with your favourite ingredients and make a set mousse dessert.
3. Sandwich/Cookie Filling
Use your leftover ganache to fill between two pieces of bread, add some cheese and grill to make a cheese-chocolate sandwich for snacks. You can also use it between two cookies and make a cookie sandwich.
