Cream butter until light and fluffy. Stir in 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar, peel, and water.
Mix flour with salt, and beat into butter mixture. Knead with hands until dough is light. Pinch off heaping teaspoonfuls of dough, press them flat, and wrap around a whole almond to cover completely. Shape like a tiny leaf and place 1 inch apart on greased baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes. Take care not to overbake.
Remove from cookie sheet, cool 2 or 3 minutes, then roll in confectioners’ sugar. Cool completely, then roll again.
