Add the sugar to the softened butter and mix together. Then mix in the applesauce, then mix in the eggs.
Dump in the dry ingredients you mixed together and mix with the wet ingredients.
Add the chocolate chips and stir those in.
Drop by tablespoonfuls on to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the cookies are starting to brown around the edge. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
