Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to cream together the dairy-free buttery spread, coconut oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the unsweetened applesauce and vanilla extract to the mixture, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a spatula, gently fold in the dairy-free white chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The cookies may look slightly underbaked in the center, but they will firm up as they cool.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
