Place the can of coconut milk in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the cream to separate from the liquid.
Chop the dairy-free dark chocolate into small pieces and set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, pour in the full-fat coconut milk (include the cream but not the watery liquid) and heat gently until it starts to simmer. Avoid boiling.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately add the chopped chocolate. Stir until the chocolate melts completely and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Allow the chocolate mixture to cool slightly at room temperature before transferring it to serving glasses or ramekins.
Spoon the chilled coconut cream (from the can placed in the refrigerator) into a mixing bowl. Use a hand whisk or electric mixer to whip the coconut cream until it's light and fluffy. This will serve as a topping for your dessert.
Top each serving of chocolate dessert with a dollop of whipped coconut cream and garnish with fresh berries or coconut flakes, if desired.
Refrigerate the desserts for at least 1 hour before serving to allow them to set. Serve chilled and enjoy!
