You can always prepare this beforehand, the trick is to not bring it to the boil as this will curdle it. But that's not to say you can't reheat it, in fact you will find it thickens by being warmed and then left to stand and warmed again.
See I told you it was easy, no more standing over the pan waiting patiently waiting for it to thicken ;)
