In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk and vanilla extract. Heat over low to medium heat until the coconut milk is warm but not boiling, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Reduce the heat to low and add the semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Taste the fondue base. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, stir in maple syrup or honey, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the desired sweetness is achieved.
Transfer the melted chocolate and coconut mixture to a fondue pot or heat-safe bowl to keep warm. If using a fondue pot with a heat source, keep the flame low to prevent the fondue from scorching.
Set up a platter with your chosen dippable snacks, such as fresh strawberries, banana slices, marshmallows, pretzels, or cubes of pound cake.
Optional: Sprinkle unsweetened shredded coconut on top of the fondue for extra flavor and texture.
Serve immediately and enjoy dipping! Stir the fondue occasionally to maintain its smooth consistency.
