Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Place the rice cakes on top, making sure they are not overlapping.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and nonfat milk. Heat in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Add the honey, unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the melted chocolate mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Using a spoon, generously spread the chocolate mixture over the top of each rice cake, ensuring even coverage.
Allow the chocolate-coated rice cakes to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes or until the chocolate has set slightly. For a quicker set, place them in the fridge for a couple of minutes.
Serve immediately, or store the chocolate rice cakes in an airtight container for up to two days.
