When the chocolate has steeped for 5 minutes, stir until velvety smooth (Picture #1).

Place in the refrigerator (Picture #2).

The stirring schedule is as follows:
Chill for 3 15-minute periods, stirring after each one (Picture #3).
At this point the ganache should be fairly stiff (Picture #4).
Chill for 3 5-minute periods, stirring after the first two.
Do NOT stir after the 3rd period. If you do this by mistake, chill for another 5 minutes.

Now you're ready to make some ganache balls!

At this step my ganache had the consistancy of the lindor truffles after the second 15 minute cooling period... Is this a bad thing? and if it is what should I do to fix it for the next batch?
