Categories     side-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons margarine or unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish
Kosher salt
1 pound wide egg noodles
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
2 cups apricot nectar
1/2 cup sugar
6 large eggs
2 cups milk
3 cups cornflakes, crushed
6 tablespoons margarine or unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the kugel: Brush a 4-quart shallow baking dish with margarine. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook as the label directs. Drain well, then transfer to the prepared baking dish. Add the margarine and stir to melt and coat the noodles.
  • Beat the cream cheese and 2 tablespoons apricot nectar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the sugar, then the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the milk and the remaining apricot nectar; beat until smooth and creamy. Pour the mixture over the noodles; stir to coat.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

16 ounces wide egg noodles
8 ounces cream cheese
16 ounces sour cream
6 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (12 ounce) jars apricot preserves
1 cup pecan halves
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 (15 ounce) can cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Grease a 9" x 13" baking dish with canola spray, set aside.
  • Boil lightly salted water in a large saucepan, add noodles and cook al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain noodles and rinse under cold water.
  • While noodles are cooking, beat together the following ingredients in a large bowl: cream cheese (room temp), butter (room temp), sour cream, vanilla extract, eggs and salt. Fold in noodles and blend well.
  • Spread half of noodle mixture in bottom of greased pan; top with one jar of apricot preserves in a thin layer. Repeat with remaining noodles and preserves. Then, sprinkle brown sugar on top, followed by pecans.
  • Bake at 350F for 40-50 minutes until top is golden and slightly crisp. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy apricots. If you can't find fresh apricots, you can use frozen or canned apricots. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
  • If you don't have matzo meal, you can use regular all-purpose flour. Just be sure to add a little extra baking powder to help the kugel rise.
  • If you don't have cottage cheese, you can use ricotta cheese instead. Ricotta cheese will give the kugel a lighter, creamier texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the kugel tough.
  • Bake the kugel until it is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Serve the kugel warm or at room temperature. It can be eaten as a breakfast, brunch, or dessert.

Conclusion:

Apricot Cottage Cheese Kugel is a delicious and easy-to-make Passover dish. It is a great way to use up leftover matzo meal and cottage cheese. The kugel is moist, flavorful, and has a slightly sweet and tangy flavor. It is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
