In a small bowl, soak the raisins in rum for at least 1 hour, or until they are plump and infused with the rum flavor.
In a heat-safe bowl, combine the coconut oil and erythritol. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water, and stir until the coconut oil is melted and the erythritol is dissolved.
Add the unsweetened cocoa powder to the melted coconut oil and erythritol mixture and stir until well combined.
Break the sugar-free dark chocolate into small pieces and add it to the cocoa mixture. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt until evenly distributed.
Remove the mixture from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Drain the rum-soaked raisins, reserving the rum for another use if desired, and fold them into the chocolate mixture.
Pour the mixture into a silicone chocolate mold or a lined tray, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Refrigerate the chocolate for at least 1 to 2 hours or until completely set.
Once set, remove the chocolate from the mold or tray and break it into pieces. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
