In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together thoroughly until they are evenly distributed. Set this bowl aside.

In a separate bowl, add the melted and cooled unsalted butter, large egg, unsweetened applesauce, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix all the wet ingredients and sugars together using a spatula until they are well combined and homogenized.

Pour the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredient mixture. Mix gently with a spatula, just enough to incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ones. Avoid overmixing; the dough should reach a thick, cohesive consistency.

Dice your favorite chocolate bar into small chunks. Add the majority of the diced chocolate to the cookie dough, reserving a small amount for topping. Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the dough. Mix the chocolates into the dough until they are evenly distributed.

Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Take spoonfuls of the cookie dough and scoop them onto the prepared baking sheet, forming uniform balls.

Take the reserved diced chocolate and gently press a few pieces onto the top of each cookie dough ball for extra gooey-fication and additional chocolate presence.

Bake the cookies for 12 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
