How to Make Sweet Cream Cheese Noodle Kugel

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 13x9 inch baking dish with butter.
  3. Cook 1 pound egg noodles according to package directions until tender-firm, about 6-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  4. In a food processor, combine 1 cup sour cream, 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 8 ounces cottage cheese, ½ cup granulated sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Process until smooth and creamy, about 20 seconds.
  5. Add 2 large eggs and 2 tablespoons melted butter to the food processor. Pulse until just combined, about 5 seconds.
  6. In a large bowl, gently combine the cream cheese mixture and cooked noodles. Stir in ½ cup raisins.
  7. Pour the noodle mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  8. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon granulated sugar and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  9. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the top of the kugel.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven on the center rack for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The kugel should be firm and risen.
  11. Let cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
