Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside for the prepared rice cakes.
In a medium-sized pot, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil over low heat. Stir continuously until fully melted and smooth.
Once melted, remove the pot from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt until well combined.
Add the puffed brown rice to the chocolate mixture and gently fold until all the rice is well coated.
Using a spoon, scoop portions of the chocolate rice mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small mounds or flattening them slightly to shape like traditional rice cakes.
Ensure each rice cake is evenly spaced on the sheet to prevent them from sticking together.
Allow the rice cakes to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or you can speed up the process by chilling them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Once set, enjoy these delightful soy-free chocolate rice cakes as a snack or dessert. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
