Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Coconut oil (solid state)
• 0.75 cups Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cups Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 cups Dairy-free dark chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon Coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, beat together the solid coconut oil and brown sugar until well combined and creamy.

Step 4

Mix in the vanilla extract and unsweetened applesauce, stirring until smooth.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until a dough forms.

Step 6

Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.

Step 8

Allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

While the cookies cool, melt the dairy-free dark chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, stirring until smooth.

Step 10

Dip each cooled cookie halfway into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip back into the bowl.

Step 11

Place the chocolate-dipped cookies back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and let the chocolate set completely before serving.
