Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC) and line large baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
-
In a large bowl, beat the margarine, applesauce, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy; the mixture may appear slightly curdled.
-
In a small separate bowl, mix the boiling water, baking soda, and vanilla extract, then stir this mixture into the margarine mixture.
-
In another large bowl, combine the flour, quick oats, and salt; gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, beating well after each addition.
-
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
-
Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about two inches apart to make 48 cookies.
-
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
-
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
