Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.
Melt 100 grams of vegan dark chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water.
Fill each liner with about 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate, spreading a bit up the sides to form a cup.
Place the muffin tin in the freezer for 10 minutes to set the chocolate.
While the chocolate is setting, mix the coconut cream, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and almond butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Remove the mixture from heat and let it cool slightly.
Once the chocolate cups have set, fill each cup with the coconut cream mixture, leaving a small amount of space at the top for the final chocolate layer.
Melt the remaining 100 grams of vegan dark chocolate chips and cover the coconut cream mixture in each cup.
Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each chocolate cup.
Return the muffin tin to the freezer and allow the chocolate cups to fully set, about 15 minutes.
Once set, store the chocolate cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
