Oscar tapped into an empty net in the 15th minute after a defensive blunder, but the Dons soon leveled when Darren Potter beat Thibaut Courtois with a heavily deflected shot from the edge of the area.
Costa and Eden Hazard squandered easy chances before Oscar drilled in Chelsea's second in the 32nd minute and then smashed in a superb third just before the break after a 25-yard (meter) run that started on the touchline.
Hazard converted a penalty after the break and Bertrand Traore added the fifth.
Everton also advanced, beating fourth-tier Carlisle 3-0.
