Recipe by: The New Dr. Cookie Cookbook
Preheat oven to 350 degrees; coat 2 cookie sheets with nonstick cooking
spray. Beat the egg, sugars and oil with an electric mixer until smooth.
Add the yogurt, vanilla extract, chocolate extract, oats and cocoa; beat
again. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; beat until well
mixed. Let the batter sit for about 10 minutes so that the oats can absorb
the liquid. Drop the batter by rounded teaspoonfuls about 2 inches apart
onto the cookie sheets and bake for 7 to 8 minutes, or until the cookies
are slightly puffy and no longer look wet. Cool on wire racks. Repeat
until all of the cookies are baked.
