GRANDMA CAROLYN'S PINEAPPLE AND COCONUT KUGEL
My MIL found this recipe in her Mother's handwriting in a recipe file. It isn't very sweet and I will add 1/2 cup sugar next time I make it. I made this for 8 people tonight and while everyone liked it, they all wished it was a bit sweeter. I added some sour cream and some ricotta cheese as well.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the egg noodles, and return to a boil.

- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Beat the eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Stir in the noodles. Pour the noodle mixture in the prepared baking pan. Pour the melted butter over the noodles, then top with the coconut.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the noodles are set and the coconut is golden brown, about 1 hour.
