3/4 cup quick oats
1/3 cup light brown sugar
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Spread hazelnuts in even layer on cookie sheet. Bake 8 minutes or until lightly browned. Quickly transfer nuts to clean dry dish towel.

Set aside.
2. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Combine egg whites, vanilla and salt in clean dry medium mixing bowl. Beat at high speed of electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add granulated sugar; continue to beat on high until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in hazelnut mixture with rubber spatula.
3. Drop level measuring tablespoonfuls of dough onto cookie sheet. Bake 15 to 17 minutes or until tops of cookies no longer appear wet. Transfer to cooling rack. Store in loosely covered container.
