Provided by Cookies & Cups

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups butter (3 sticks)
2 cups light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
5 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups all purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 cup light brown sugar
5 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
3/4 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Coat a 12 cup bundt pan heavily with nonstick spray. Alternately you can grease the pan with shortening and lightly dust with flour. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment beat the butter and both sugars together until light and fluffy on medium speed. Add in the eggs, vanilla, salt, and baking powder and mix until smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
  • Turn the mixer to low and add in 1 cup of the flour and 1/2 cup milk. Mix for 20 seconds and add in 1 more cup of flour and the remaining 1/2 cup of milk and mix for 20 seconds and finally add in the last cup of flour. Mix for 30 seconds until combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes and then invert the pan onto a cake plate.
  • In a medium sauce pot over medium heat whisk together the brown sugar, butter, and milk. Bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the vanilla and powdered sugar until there are no lumps.
  • Allow the icing to cool for 5 - 10 minutes to thicken slightly and then stir in the chopped pecans.
  • Pour the icing on top of the cake evenly.
  • Allow the icing to set and serve.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Breakfast & Brunch

Time 1h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1¼ cups all purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled off
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, cold, cut into ½-inch chunks
One 12-oz bag wide egg noodles
4 large eggs
One 8-oz container sour cream
One 8-oz package cream cheese, softened (microwave for 15-20 seconds to soften)
2 cups half & half
½ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Combine the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, mix until no lumps of brown sugar remain. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until the mixture has a clumpy, crumbly texture. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat the oven to 325°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Butter a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
  • Bring a large pot of unsalted water to a boil. Cook the noodles for 6 to 8 minutes, or according to package instructions, until tender. Drain well.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the sour cream and softened cream cheese and whisk to combine. Add the half & half, sugar, salt, vanilla, and cinnamon, and whisk until completely smooth.
  • Spread the cooked noodles evenly in the prepared baking dish. Pour the custard mixture evenly over top. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 35 minutes. Remove and discard the foil. The custard should be just set. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the top, making sure to cover all the noodles. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes more, until the streusel topping is crisp. Let cool for about 20 minutes, then cut into squares and serve.
  • Make Ahead: The kugel and topping can be assembled and stored separately in the fridge up to a day ahead of time, and then baked before serving. (The kugel with the streusel topping may also be fully cooked a day ahead of time and reheated, however the texture will be denser than if baked fresh. To reheat, cover with foil and place in a 325°F oven for 25 minutes; remove and discard the foil, and continue baking for 20 to 25 minutes more, or until warm throughout and crisp on top.)

BUNDT APPLESAUCE NOODLE KUGEL



Bundt Applesauce Noodle Kugel image

A beautiful presentation for a luncheon, it not only looks great, but tastes out of this world! (Tip: make sure that the Bundt pan is coated well with cooking spray) Prep time does not include cooking the noodles. I have even made this in a 13x9 baking pan, just coat the bottom of the pan with melted butter, and then sprinkle brown sugar on top, mix all the remaining ingredients and pour over brown sugar/butter mixture--no need to invert the pan after baking, just cut into squares and serve.

Tips:

  • Make sure your oven is preheated before baking the kugel. This will help ensure that it cooks evenly.

  • Serve the kugel warm or at room temperature.
