Beat the egg whites until stiff, then gradually add the sugar and
continue beating for about 1/4 hour, then add vanilla and grated
nuts. Refrigerate for several hours, then drop by teaspoonfuls on
unglazed paper-covered cookie sheets. Press a whole hazelnut into the
center of each cookie. Let stand overnight, then bake in 300 oven for
approximately 1 hour, or until cookies can be lifted from paper.
While still warm, ice lightly with frosting made by stirring water
into 1 cup of confectioners' sugar until it is creamy. Oregon Hazelnut Cookies printer friendly version located here.
