Recipe - Anitra’s Creamy Yogurt

Here is the recipe for Homemade yogurt from our August Relief Society Activity:
In a medium saucepan, combine 7 cups milk with 1/2 cup powdered milk. Whisk till smooth. Heat to 200 degrees or until milk starts to bubble on the sides and crawl up the pan. Remove from heat and pour into a pitcher. Allow to cool until warm to the touch (110 degrees), but not stinging hot. Add 1 cup of yogurt starter (you can either use some from your last batch, or, if you forgot to save some, use Dannon plain). Mix until smooth, then fill 4 pint jars with the milk mixture. Immediately place in thick blanket or “3-in1 WonderBox Mini” and wrap jars tightly. Allow to sit 9 hours, untouched, before refrigerating. To make vanilla yogurt, add 1/3 cup sugar and 2 tbsp. vanilla to the heating milk. For fruit yogurt, place a few tbsp. of your favorite jam at the bottom of the jars before filling!
