Preparation

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles; cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain noodles; set aside.

Heat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter; set aside.

Using a hand mixer, beat egg whites in a bowl until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes. Set beaten egg whites aside. Using a hand mixer, beat 8 tablespoons butter, plus sugar in a bowl until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add yolks, one at a time, beating until smooth after each addition. Add cottage cheese and sour cream; mix until combined.

Add noodles and toss to coat. Gently fold in egg whites. Transfer mixture to prepared dish and spread into an even layer.

Sprinkle with crushed cornflakes, and dot with remaining butter; bake until golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes.
