Preheat oven to 3505° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Beat the non-dairy margarine and sugars together in a mixer on medium speed until it is creamy. Add the applesauce and vanilla and cream together until light and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the flour mixture to the mixer and mix until creamy. Using a spatula, stir in the rice cereal, non-dairy chocolate chips and cranberries and mix well.
Using a cookie scooper place dough onto the cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes until lightly brown. Cool and serve.
