This recipe is for a full kugel that fills an oblong 9-inch by 14-inch pan, or two square 8-inch or 9-inch pans. For smaller portions, cut all ingredients in half.

Ingredients

  • ½ lb. fine egg noodles, cooked and drained
  • 2 jars or cans of cherry (or blueberry) pie filling
  • ½ lb. margarine or butter (I use little bit less)
  • 8 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ lb. cream cheese, softened
  • 1 pint sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla

Directions

Cook noodles and drain. Melt margarine in baking pan and grease sides. Add cooked noodles and mix to coat noodles with melted margarine.

Mix together well using a whisk or electric mixer: eggs, sugar, cream cheese, sour cream and vanilla.

Pour mixture over noodles.

Bake 1 hour at 350°.

Cover the top with fruit for last 10-15 minutes of baking, or after cooking & cooling, Turn it upside down on a oven safe dish.

Cover with cherries and re-heat for 10 to 30 minutes until hot.
