Gooey marshmallows, a chewy cookie base, and melted chocolate on top
make these easy vegan Hot Chocolate Cookies an instant hit!

Preheat your oven to 350?F (175?C). Line a baking sheet with
parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking
soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk the melted vegan butter, light brown sugar,
applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just
combined. Fold in the chopped vegan dark chocolate.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for 15 minutes to firm up.

Scoop out about 2 tb of dough per cookie and roll into balls. Place
on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2" space between each.

Bake for 10 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers are still
soft.

Remove the cookies from the oven and gently press a marshmallow half
into the center of each cookie. Return to the oven for 2 to 4
minutes, just until the marshmallows puff slightly.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then
transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

While cookies cool, melt the chopped semi-sweet chocolate using a
double boiler, or in a microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring
between intervals until smooth.

Spoon the melted chocolate over each marshmallow-topped cookie. Add
sprinkles if desired. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature
for 30 to 60 minutes before serving.
