These quick, easy, great tasting  gluten- free, no bake cookies are named for a co-worker, who I will call Lynette to protect her identity. Lynette has fond memories of childhood visits to her grandmother’s kitchen where they would share no bake cookies. Thanks Lynette for suggesting an Arzu gluten- free version!

Ingredients

• 4 Tbls Butter or margarine
• 1 cup sugar
• ¼ cup coco powder
• ½  tsp. gluten free vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups Arzu Original Flavor
• ¼  cup milk ( may substitute with almond or soy milk)
• ¼  cup peanut butter
• ½  cup shredded coconut ( optional)

Directions

• In a 3 quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
• Add sugar and coco powder, stir until melted.
• Remove from heat, add vanilla and peanut butter, mix well.
• Add Arzu and coconut if desired, mix well.
• Drop by rounded teaspoon onto a  wax paper lined cookie sheet..
• Cool completely. ( If using Margarine, chill cookies in refrigerator for 1-2 hours before serving.)
