Discover the perfect balance of tangy and sweet with these Lemony Oatmeal Cookies. The bright citrus notes from fresh lemon peel and extract perfectly complement the hearty texture of rolled oats, while chopped candied cherries add bursts of sweetness and color throughout. These delightful treats are finished with a light dusting of confectioners' sugar for an elegant touch that makes them perfect for afternoon tea, holiday cookie exchanges, or anytime you crave a sophisticated cookie with a refreshing twist. - Claude

Ingredients
2 cups (4 sticks) butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
2 teaspoons lemon extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup chopped candied cherries
Directions
In a large bowl, beat the butter and granulated sugar until creamy.
Add the remaining ingredients except the confectioners' sugar; mix well.
Cover and chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheets.
Flatten with the bottom of a glass repeatedly dipped in confectioners' sugar.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the edges are golden.
Cool for 1 minute on the cookie sheets, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
Sprinkle with additional confectioners' sugar, if desired.
