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.

CRUSHED PINEAPPLE AND COCONUT COOKIES

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in the egg noodles, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the noodles have cooked through, but are still firm to the bite, about 5 minutes. Drain well. Place cooked noodles into a mixing bowl.
- With an electric mixer, beat egg whites in a bowl until they form stiff peaks; set egg whites aside. Whisk the egg yolks together in a bowl until smooth, and mix in the sugar until well combined. Pour egg yolk mixture over the noodles, and mix in the cinnamon, apples, raisins, and almonds. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites, trying to keep as much volume as possible. Pour the kugel into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the kugel is browned and the center is set, about 30 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe pineapple for the best flavor. If fresh pineapple is unavailable, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well.
- Grate the coconut finely for a smoother texture. You can use a food processor or a box grater.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the kugel tough.
- Bake the kugel until it is set in the center. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Let the kugel cool slightly before serving. This will help it to hold its shape.
Conclusion:
Grandma Carolyn's Pineapple and Coconut Kugel is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy flavor, and its moist and fluffy texture, this kugel is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
