Caramel Cheesecake Mousse

This is an absolute show-stopping, tasty dessert! The mousses can be served in any glass dish, but I purchased these at The Christmas Tree Shops for $1.50. If you’re short on time, use store-bought caramel sauce (such as Baker’s Choice) and swap the homemade shards for caramel popcorn on top. It’s a win-win: you’ll be the outstanding chef, with minimal effort!

Prepare the Caramel Shards

  1. Line a large cookie sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.

Can these be made in advance and frozen?

Yes but the caramel shards and the whipped cream should be added last minute before serving.
