When there is no time to bake a cake, there is always time for a dessert in a glass – they do not require special effort and decoration to look divine. These contain a fluffy milk chocolate mousse, Oreo crumbs, caramel, peanuts and a featherlight mascarpo- ne filling. For me, the caramel must be salted, but you can omit the salt in the recipe if you wish. If we don't have time to prepare the caramel, store-bought caramel topping will work just fine.
When there is no time to prepare the cake, you can prepare other desserts in a glass:

Preparation
- First prepare the caramel. Pour sugar in a saucepan or pan, add water and heat on medium heat until the sugar melts and gets a characteristic caramel color. Meanwhile, heat the whipping cream. Add butter to the melted sugar, set aside and add the cream. Cook on a low heat, stirring constantly, to get a smooth caramel sauce. Add salt, pour into a glass and chill.
- Whip the whipping cream and refrigerate. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler, cool to lukewarm and stir in the whipping cream with a spatula in two stages.
- For the mascarpone filling, whip the cream until medium soft peaks form. Combine mascarpone cheese with vanilla and sugar and stir until smooth, then add the whipped cream with a spatula.
- First, pour one tablespoon of Oreo crumbs into each glass and pipe half of the chocolate filling. Spread half of the caramel over the chocolate filling and sprinkle with peanuts. Add the chocolate filling and afterwards pour another tablespoon of Oreo crumbs and the mascarpone filling, then spread the remaining caramel over the top and sprinkle with peanuts. Cool and serve.
