Line a 9x9 inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing it to hang over the edges for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper with coconut oil or cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine 0.5 cup water with the powdered gelatin. Stir to mix and set aside to bloom for about 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, combine the erythritol, 0.25 cup water, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the erythritol has dissolved.
Once dissolved, increase the heat to medium-high and bring the syrup to a gentle boil. Allow to boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
Pour the hot syrup in a slow, steady stream into the bowl with the bloomed gelatin, using a hand mixer to beat constantly at low speed.
Once all the syrup has been added, increase the mixer speed to high and continue beating for about 8-10 minutes, until the mixture is thick, glossy, and has tripled in volume.
Add the vanilla extract and beat for another 30 seconds to incorporate.
Pour the marshmallow mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly with an offset spatula. Let it set at room temperature for at least 2 hours.
Once set, lift out the marshmallow block using the parchment edges and place on a cutting board. Cut into 24 squares using a greased knife.
For the chocolate coating, melt the unsweetened chocolate and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, stirring until smooth.
Stir in the powdered erythritol until dissolved.
Dip each marshmallow square into the chocolate, using a fork to turn and coat completely. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl before transferring to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Refrigerate the coated marshmallows until the chocolate is set, about 30 minutes.
Store the chocolate-covered marshmallows in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
