Preheat oven to 375°F.

In a large mixing bowl, mix the following ingredients:

• ½ cup coconut oil
• 1¼ cups brown sugar
• ½ tsp. powdered vanilla
• ¼ cup coconut milk
• ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce

Mix in a separate bowl:

• 2⅓ cups white flour spoon and level
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• ½ tsp. salt

Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Then fold in:

• 1½ cups carob chips

Spoon into small mounds on a nonstick cookie sheet, leaving space between each cookie to allow for spreading. Bake for 9 or 10 minutes, or until the centers have set. Allow to cool before removing from pan.
