My Mother-In-Law's Sweet Noodle Kugel

Please Note:

Feel free to adjust ingredients to your own preferences. 

This dish tastes best if it is prepared the day before and refrigerated, and then baked before you are going to serve it, so that the ingredients have a chance to blend together first. 

You will need either a large casserole, large baking dish or a large 9x13 baking pan for this recipe.

You'll need a mixer and a larger mixing bowl, too.

Grease your pan, and preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Ingredients:

8 oz. medium width egg noodles

One 8 oz. package of cream cheese, softened

4 eggs, beaten

1 stick of butter, softened

1/2 cup of white sugar

1 cup whole milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 pinch cinnamon (You can add a bit more here if you prefer more flavor)

Golden raisins

(You can use dark raisins if you prefer, and add the quantity that you prefer for the raisins; I add anywhere from a 1/4 to 1/2 cup because I really like raisins)

Crushed Corn Flake crumbs for topping, to be added right before baking

How To Make:

Cook and drain the egg noodles according to package directions. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, cream cheese, and sugar. 

Mix in the milk, eggs, vanilla, and cinnamon.

Stir in the cooked noodles, and carefully blend everything together by hand.

Pour the noodle mixture into the greased baking dish.

Once your mixture is in the dish, carefully sprinkle and distribute your raisins across the dish.

Top with crushed Corn Flake crumbs.

Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes at 350 degrees. 

Remove from the oven and let cool to set a bit. 

Can be served warm or cold.

Note: If you're refrigerating your dish overnight to bake for the next day, you can wait and put your Corn Flake crumbs on until you're ready to bake the dish so that they stay crunchy for baking.

My friend Joanie used to make noodle kugel whenever we had a party and I liked it. I don't think there was cream cheese in her kugel, I'm going to make this recipe, thanks for sharing.

You're welcome, everyone! 

I hope that you enjoy it. 

Hi @Kachina624,

When I make it, we eat it with the meal. 

I make it in a large pan and cut it into squares. 

You can certainly serve it however you like though, if you'd prefer to serve it after your meal. 

There are so many different variations of Kugels out there--both sweet and savory.

Some are made with sour cream, or cottage cheese, or cream cheese and some are made with potatoes or other veggies.

The combinations are endless.
