Preparation
Step 1
preheat the oven to 350F and put your butter in a sauce pan over low heat to melt. then boil and drain the noodles. wait at least 10 minutes for the noodles to cool off.
separate the eggs and whip the whites until they hold their peaks.
once the noodles are cool you can mix in the cottage cheese, sour cream, vanilla, sugar, egg yolks and most of the melted butter (save a little for the top.) fold in the egg whites until just incorporated and pour the mixture into a greased 13 1/2 x 8 inch pan.
mix your graham cracker crumb and cinnamon sugar mixture in a small bowl (approximately 1/4th cup of crumbs, 2 tbsp sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon.) sprinkle the crumb and cinnamon sugar mixture over the kugel evenly, then pour the rest of the melted butter over to finish. cover with foil and pop in the oven.
bake for 45-60 minutes or until the center is set.
let cool slightly before slicing into squares. serve warm with a dollop of sour cream. you can make it ahead of time and warm it in the oven.
