How to Make Sticky Bun Noodle Kugel

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Melt 1 cup (2 sticks) of margarine in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 1 cup packed light brown sugar until completely dissolved and smooth.
  3. Pour the brown sugar mixture into a greased 10-inch bundt pan. Evenly press ½ cup pecan halves into the mixture.
  4. In a large bowl, cook 1 pound egg noodles according to package directions. Drain well.
  5. While noodles cook, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon salt in a separate bowl.
  6. Add 1 cup sour cream and 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese to the egg mixture and stir until well combined.
  7. Gently fold the cooked noodles into the egg and cheese mixture until evenly coated.
  8. Carefully pour the noodle mixture over the pecan and brown sugar layer in the bundt pan.
  9. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until golden brown and set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  10. Let cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate.
