Salted Caramel Mousse ROLO Cookie Cups

I actually made these for my daughter, Amber.  She turned 18 yesterday and she’s a senior this year. And what kind of mother would I be if I didn’t bake something a little special for her birthday? 

We went out to celebrate at an authentic Indian Restaurant for a little change-up.  It was so delicious.  I ate way too much of that Naan and Roti bread. OMG…stop me already, would ya? 

I’m addicted to bread. And chocolate.  When I die, they’ll say, yes she was sooo addicted to chocolate and I might very well be covered in chocolate bars.  Who knows??
