• Ready In: 10 hrs
• Serves: 10

Ingredients

• 1  quart milk or 947  ml milk
• 2  tablespoons sugar (optional)
• 2  teaspoons vanilla (optional)

Directions

1. heat milk and (optional) sugar in heavy bottomed pan until between 180-190°F.
2. pour milk into a second container (I use a Pyrex) to cool (covering helps keep a film from forming on top).
3. cool until milk reaches 105-110°F.
4. remove about a cup of milk and stir in yogurt and vanilla.
5. pour the cup of milk back into the larger container and stir gently (as little as possible but all around container).
6. wrap container in a towel and leave in a warm place for 8 hours (I use my oven with the light turned on and leave it overnight).
7. Enjoy!
