In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together milk, coffee, and cream; slowly bring to a simmer.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar and cornstarch until blended.
Ladle a little hot milk mixture over the eggs; whisk immediately. While continuing to whisk, pour in the remaining hot milk into the eggs. This is called tempering, which prevents scrambling the eggs.
Return the custard mixture back into the saucepan; place over medium-low heat.
Whisk custard constantly for about 6-8 minutes or until thickened. Do not let mixture boil or it can curdle.
When thickened, remove from heat; whisk in butter, instant coffee granules and salt. Taste; add a little more instant coffee for an even stronger flavor, if desired.
Pass the custard through a sieve to remove lumps for a silky smooth pudding. Refrigerate for 3 hours.
Serve cold topped with whipped cream and shaved chocolate.
Store the pudding in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
8 servings.
