Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine coconut oil and cocoa powder. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until the coconut oil is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener) until fully dissolved. Add the banana extract, vanilla extract, and coconut cream to the mixture and stir well.
Take a teaspoon-full of the chocolate mixture and drop it onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading slightly to form small chocolate discs.
Sprinkle shredded coconut and chopped nuts (if using) on top of each chocolate disc.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator or freezer until the chocolate is set, about 15 minutes.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
