- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.33 cup Granulated sugar

- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the applesauce, vanilla extract, and egg whites to the butter mixture and mix until fully combined.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed in the dough.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly soft. Do not overbake.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool for 5 minutes on the sheets before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
