| 1 | cup | Firmly packed dark brown |
| Sugar | ||
| 1 | large | Egg |
| ½ | cup | Applesauce |

Directions
In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter, oil, and brown sugar until smooth. Add egg, applesauce, and vanilla; beat until blended. Beat in baking powder, soda, and salt, then flour, until smooth. Scrape side of bowl, then stir in oats and chocolate.
Bake dough right away; if allowed to sit, cookies will be dry. Drop dough by 2-tablespoon portions onto 2 lightly oiled 12-by-15-inch baking sheets, spacing evenly. Dip fingertips in granulated sugar, then pat cookies into ⅓-inch-think rounds.
Bake in a 350~ oven until pale golden, about 10 minutes; switch pan positions after 5 minutes. Lift to racks; eat warm or cool. Makes about 25.
