**All Black And White Cookies**
**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp baking powder
– 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 1/2 cup vegan butter, softened
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1/4 cup non-dairy milk
– 1/4 cup cocoa powder
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 2-3 tbsp non-dairy milk (for icing)
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the vegan butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the applesauce and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, and mix until well combined.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the non-dairy milk, until a smooth cookie dough forms.
6. Divide the cookie dough in half. In one half, mix in the cocoa powder until fully combined, creating a dark brown dough.
7. Roll out the vanilla cookie dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out circles and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
8. Repeat the same process with the chocolate cookie dough.
9. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
10. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and non-dairy milk to make the white icing. If too thick, add a splash more of milk.
11. Once the cookies have cooled, spread half of each cookie with the white icing and the other half with the dark chocolate icing. Let the icing set before serving. Enjoy your delicious All Black And White Cookies!
