Begin by preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
In a double boiler, melt the sugar-free dark chocolate and coconut oil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until smooth.
Once the chocolate is melted, stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
Remove the chocolate mixture from heat and allow it to cool slightly for about a minute, ensuring it remains liquid yet not too hot.
Add the whole coffee beans to the chocolate, stirring until all beans are completely coated.
Using a fork or a slotted spoon, remove the coated coffee beans one by one and place them on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are well separated.
Once all beans are coated and on the sheet, transfer them to the refrigerator to set for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm.
Once set, remove from the fridge and store in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain freshness.
