Prepare a double boiler by filling a small saucepan with a few inches of water and bringing it to a simmer. Place a heatproof bowl over the saucepan ensuring the bottom does not touch the water.
Add cocoa butter and coconut oil to the bowl and melt them gently, stirring occasionally with a spatula until fully liquefied.
Once melted, whisk in the unsweetened cocoa powder and erythritol until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
In a small bowl, combine the heavy cream with the instant coffee granules, stirring until the coffee is dissolved.
Add the coffee mixture to the melted cocoa butter mixture, whisking until fully incorporated.
Stir in the vanilla extract and salt, ensuring they are evenly mixed into the chocolate base.
Prepare a silicone candy mold or line a small baking dish with parchment paper for setting the mixture.
Pour the chocolate coffee mixture into the mold or prepared dish, spreading evenly.
Place the mold or dish in the refrigerator for about 1 to 2 hours, or until the candies are completely set.
Once set, remove the candies from the mold or cut into bite-sized pieces if using a dish.
Store the Keto Chocolate Coffee Candies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
