Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened coconut oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until well combined and creamy.
Stir in the vanilla extract and unsweetened applesauce into the sugar mixture until fully incorporated.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a dough forms. Fold in the vegan chocolate chips.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are fully cooled, take one cookie and place a scoop of vegan almond milk ice cream on the flat side. Gently press another cookie on top to form a sandwich.
Repeat the process until all cookies are used. You can enjoy them immediately or wrap them individually in plastic wrap and freeze for a firmer texture.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.
