Good to see ya BTW, so rarely (never) see you here on the CMB
I do actually have a yogurt cookie recipe for chocolate chip, subs in for egg basically, a quarter cup yogurt per egg is the loose rule of thumb I know of and I'm told half a bananas can also substitute for 1 egg in a recipe though I've never done it myself, but I would speculate that recipe below could substitute the half cup of yogurt with a quarter cup and half a banana... I don't know about substituting in kiwi in place of the chocolate chips though I'd guess a recipe this size, stripped of chips, might come out okay with a kiwi in it, or maybe half of one.
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 cup margarine or butter
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Banana, yogurt and kiwi are not suitable ingredients for cookie dough. Unless you add a minuscule quantity, they would make any cookie dough too wet. The moisture in cookie dough essentially comes from fat (occasionally with some egg), or you end up with something more like cake/brownies etc.

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

Baking is more generally a study of proportion.

Cookie dough is one part sugar, two parts fat, and 3 parts flour.

I was always told that a cookie over a certain size would be characterized as a cake anyway.

Hm. I've always been told the difference was a matter of consistency and proportion. *NM*

It seems to me that a cake is spongier, while a cookie will become crisp after it cools

Butter/egg yolk to keep the dough intact and very little moisture (water)

I put 'drop' chocolate chip cookie dough on a baking tray and into the oven.
