Here's the situation, I made chocolate pound cake, froze cut into 1 inch squares, suck in freezer, made ganache (1.5 bags choco chips + 3/4 cup cream), dipped frozen petit fours into ganache, let them drip, put back i freezer, set out to serve, ganache VERY gooey. I thought it ought to set up better than that, too gooey to pick up. Suggestions here? These are to be delivered tomorrow, have to make them later tonight. Thnks for the help everyone!

You have to give it time to set up. Not in the freezer, though. The refrigerator should be enough. however, if it is warm, they may still be gooey. Ganache does not normally set hard.
