How to Make Lemony Snickets
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon lemon extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup rolled oats, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in ½ cup crystallized ginger.
- Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.
- **The Disguise:** In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Lightly sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
- Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. (Don't worry, you won't need the fire department!)
