Chop the dark chocolate finely and place it in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just starts to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir gently until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Stir in the butter, rum, and sea salt until well combined. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks and granulated sugar together until pale and slightly thickened.
Gradually whisk the slightly cooled chocolate mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
Divide the mixture evenly among four small ramekins or serving glasses.
Cover the ramekins with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
Before serving, top with whipped cream and shaved chocolate if desired.
