Ingredients
Scale
- 2 g of cinnamon powder
- 500 g apples, peeled, diced into chunks
- 110 g of light brown sugar
- 357 g of chilled heavy cream
- 96 g of instant vanilla pudding powder mix
- 220 g finely crushed vanilla wafers
- 244 g milk, cold
- 75 g ready-made or DIY salted caramel sauce
- 57 g of butter, melted (can be salted or unsalted)
- Extra caramel sauce to drizzle on top
Instructions
- Heat a medium pot over a low flame. Toss apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon together. Stir occasionally and let it all simmer till the apples soften and the mix gets syrupy. Leave it to cool.
- Blend melted butter with the crumbled wafers in a bowl until they combine nicely. Split this mix across 28 small 2-ounce clear cups and press into a base layer.
- Whisk instant pudding powder with cold milk for a smooth consistency. Let it chill in the fridge for 5 minutes.
- Stir the salted caramel sauce into the pudding mix. Use a hand mixer set to medium to make it silky.
- Whip heavy cream into the caramel-pudding base for 3 to 5 minutes until it becomes thick and fluffy.
- Scoop the caramel mousse into a piping bag. Pipe a layer of mousse over the crumb base in each cup.
- Spoon the cinnamon apples onto the mousse layer. If you want, drizzle a bit more caramel sauce on top. Secure lids to the cups and chill in the fridge.
- You can keep these chilled for up to 3 days or dig in right away!
Notes
- You can use either salted or unsalted butter based on your preference.
- For a twist, add nuts or chocolate chips to the mousse layer.
- These cups can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
