Sweet Kugel (Noodle Pudding)
|
|
This is my recipe for sweet kugel, developed over the years. Please feel free
to experiment with it. A half recipe works well, but if I'm going to the
trouble, I usually make a full one.
|
| Ingredients: |
| 1 lb medium egg noodles |
| 8 oz (2 sticks) butter |
| 10 large eggs |
| 16 oz cream cheese, softened |
| 16 oz sour cream |
| 12 oz sugar |
| 2 tsp vanilla |
| 1/2 tsp salt |
| 6 oz Graham cracker crumbs |
| Equipment: |

- Beat the 6 egg yolks, 4 remaining eggs, sugar, cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla and salt until well mixed
- Moisten the Graham cracker crumbs with 1 tbsp of the melted butter
- Assembly (at each step, put 1/2 of the ingredients in each baking pan)
- Combine the noodles and melted butter in the baking pan
- Stir in the custard mixture

- Sprinkle the crumbs over the top.
- Cover the pans with foil and bake for 45-50 minutes, removing the foil about 1/2 way through.
Toothpick should come out clean.
