Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In another medium-sized bowl, sift together the cocoa powder and baking powder. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the vegan butter and coconut sugar together until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and applesauce to the butter mixture, and continue mixing until fully incorporated.
Divide this wet mixture evenly between two bowls.
In the first bowl, combine the flour mixture with half of the wet ingredient mixture to create the cookie dough base.
Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips into the cookie dough and set aside.
In the second bowl, gradually incorporate the cocoa mixture with the remaining wet ingredients to create the brownie batter.
Spread the brownie batter evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Spoon or sprinkle the cookie dough on top of the brownie layer in small clumps.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
Let the brookie cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares and serving.
