Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave in 20-second increments, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth.
Stir in the stevia extract into the melted chocolate mixture to add sweetness, adjusting the amount depending on your taste preference.
Dip each pretzel into the melted chocolate mixture, using a fork to lift and allow the excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
Place each chocolate-coated pretzel on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not touch one another.
Sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt on each pretzel for added flavor, followed by a sprinkle of unsweetened shredded coconut.
Once all pretzels are coated and decorated, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
Once the chocolate has hardened, remove the pretzels from the refrigerator and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
