Heat a saucepan to low and add in the coconut milk, heavy cream and instant coffee and whisk.
In a mixing bowl, add in the egg yolks, salt and sweetener. Whisk for a few minutes or until the mixture has thickened and becomes a pale yellow color.
Once the milk and cream mixture has just started to simmer (do not bring to a boil), slowly ladle in some into the bowl with the eggs while whisking. This will temper the eggs so they don’t curdle.
Slowly whisk the mixture into the saucepan and simmer for 3-4 minutes on low heat, whisking often, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Add the chocolate chips and vanilla extract into a mixing bowl.
Pour the custard over the chocolate chips, while straining through a fine mesh sieve. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to start to melt, then whisk until fully combined and creamy.
Pour into ramekins or serving glasses, then chill in the fridge for 4 hours or overnight until fully set.
Serve with the optional whipped cream, shaved chocolate and/or fresh berries.
