Homemade Yogurt In A Cooler!

1. 1

   In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm milk to 185 degrees, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.

2. 2

   Add dry milk to warmed milk and whisk until dissolved.

3. 3

   Place pan in a large bowl with ice water and cool milk down to 110 degrees.

4. 4

   Place 3 T yogurt in a small bowl and mix with about 1/2 cup of warm milk.

5. 5

   Pour pan of warm milk into a one quart jar, then add yogurt mixture.

6. 6

   Partially fill a 1 gallon drink cooler with 110 degree water (I use one with the spout in the lid, but any small cooler will work).

7. 7

   Place jar in cooler and make sure the water comes up to just below the lid.

8. 8

   Cover cooler and place in a warm, sunny spot in your yard for 6-8 hours! The sun will help the yogurt stay nice and warm while it incubates.

9. 9

   Refridgerate and enjoy!
