But for the most part, I make it for basic frosting so I don't (luckily) have to get too scientific about it. <br />I like the idea of trading recipes like ladies in the 50s. If only we could bring back recipe cards - though I never could figure out how to fit all the words to a recipe on one index card, no matter how large it is.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-5293563070605218762013-11-07T21:00:05.319-05:002013-11-07T21:00:05.319-05:00The trouble is ganache is so easy to make and sinc...The trouble is ganache is so easy to make and since I love it so much, it's very tempting to eat too much! : ) Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-53980271654406186902013-11-07T20:29:13.618-05:002013-11-07T20:29:13.618-05:00Chocolate ganache rocks, and I use them frequently...Chocolate ganache rocks, and I use them frequently with cakes, cupcakes, tarts.

I'm happy we've now officially traded recipes like two ladies in the 50's. :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11198781416825763430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-92196897753307595472013-11-07T14:10:22.038-05:002013-11-07T14:10:22.038-05:00Your healthier ganache recipe sounds really good! ...Your healthier ganache recipe sounds really good!
