Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use a dark roast coffee.
- To make the coffee ice cubes, brew a pot of coffee and pour it into an ice cube tray. Freeze the coffee cubes for at least 4 hours.
- If you don't have caramel sauce, you can make your own by melting 1 cup of sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir the sugar until it turns a light amber color, then remove it from the heat and stir in 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Return the saucepan to the heat and cook for 1 minute, or until the sauce has thickened.
- To make the mousse ahead of time, prepare it up to 2 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When you're ready to serve, let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
