Ingredients:

  • 16 cups 1% milk (1 gallon)
  • 1/2 cup splenda
  • 2 tsp vanilla

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 100-110°.
  2. Put a 1-gallon dutch oven on a heat diffuser in a large frypan and fill the frypan with water. Bring water to boil.
  3. Insert a thermometer and heat the milk, stirring occasionally, until the thermometer reads 170-180°.
  4. Remove dutch oven from heat, cover, and let stand 10 minutes.
  5. Uncover and let temperature drop to 150°. Stir in splenda until dissolved and stir in vanilla.
  6. Turn off oven but don't open door. Turn oven light on.
  7. Let milk mix temperature drop to 130°. Add a few ladles of the milk to the yogurt to prevent curdling, then stir the yogurt into the milk mixture.
  8. Cover dutch oven, wrap in a towel, and set inside oven.
  9. Let this sit overnight, although you can check it after 3-4 hours by gently touching the surface with a spoon. If it is firm, or if it is solid but has a bit of clear, yellowish liquid on the surface, it is done. If not, check in another hour. Leaving it too long may make it sour-***test this step to see if overnight is fine, or what.
  10. Then put in plastic container and refrigerate at least 4-6 hours (it isn't really done until it is chilled).
  11. Remember to save a cup to act as seeder for next batch (ideally plain is best, but see if the flavored stuff works).
