In a large bowl stir together crushed cookies, 1 cup powdered sugar, the almonds, and the 1/2 cup crushed lemon drops. In a small bowl combine milk, corn syrup, and melted butter. Stir milk mixture into cookie mixture until well mixed.
Place finely crushed lemon drops In a small bowl. Shape cookie mixture into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in crushed lemon drops to coat. Place balls on a large baking sheet or tray.
