In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the heavy cream and butter. Stir continuously until the butter melts completely and the mixture is smooth.
Remove from heat and add the unsweetened baker's chocolate, stirring until it is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the powdered erythritol sweetener, vanilla extract, and sea salt until everything is well combined and smooth. Let this mixture cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
Once cooled, refrigerate the mixture for about 1 to 2 hours, or until firm enough to scoop and shape.
Prepare a shallow dish or plate with the unsweetened cocoa powder.
Using a small spoon or melon baller, scoop about 1 tablespoon of the chocolate mixture and roll it between your palms to form a ball.
Gently roll each truffle in the cocoa powder until coated and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Repeat with the remaining chocolate mixture.
Refrigerate the truffles for at least 30 minutes before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
