Chocolate Raspberry Gourmet Overnight Oatmeal

Adapted from The Yummy Life's Raspberry Vanilla Refrigerator Oatmeal and Banana Cocoa Refrigerator Oatmeal
I make four days' worth of the same variety in one large glass snap-lock storage dish.  Four days' breakfast made in under 15 minutes, no cooking involved.

Ingredients
1/4 c. uncooked old fashioned rolled oats
1/3 c. skim milk
1/4 c. low-fat Greek yogurt
1.5 t. dried chia seeds
1-2 t. dark cocoa powder
1 t. raspberry jam, honey, agave (or substitute any preferred sweetener)
1/4 t. ea. vanilla extract, to taste
1/4-1/3 cup fresh or frozen whole, unsweetened raspberries, or enough to fill jar (cut each berry in half, or lightly smash them.
sprinkle each instant espresso, cayenne, and cinnamon
drops orange extract

Directions
In a half pint (1 cup) jar, add everything except the fruit. Put lid on jar and shake until well combined. Remove lid, add fruit and stir until mixed throughout (or add fresh or frozen fruit in the morning). Return lid to jar and refrigerate overnight or up to 3 days. Eat chilled or warmed up in the microwave.

These add depth and complexity to the chocolate!
