Prepare a small baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Pour coconut cream into a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat until it starts to steam. Do not let it boil.
Remove from heat and stir in the dairy-free dark chocolate chips until melted and smooth, creating a rich ganache.
Add maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the ganache, stirring until fully combined.
Allow the ganache to cool slightly, then cover with plastic wrap touching the surface of the ganache to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for about 1 hour or until firm enough to handle.
Once firm, scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the ganache and roll into balls using the palms of your hands. If the ganache is too sticky, refrigerate for a bit longer.
Place the rolled ganache balls onto the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, sift the cocoa powder and roll each ganache ball in the cocoa to coat thoroughly.
Place the coated bon bons back onto the baking sheet and refrigerate for about 15 minutes to set.
Serve the dairy-free chocolate bon bons chilled or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
