How to make lemon snowballs:

In a mixing bowl, cream butter, sugar and egg until well blended. Add lemon juice and peel. Combine flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt; stir into creamed mixture. Add almonds. Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour or overnight. Roll into 1-inch balls. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 10 to 12 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned (cookies will not brown on top). Remove immediately to wire rack; cool for 5 minutes, then roll in confectioners sugar. Yields about 3 dozen.
