Noodle Kugel is my all-time Sunday morning brunch favorite. My 100% Hungarian Mom would make it for us almost every Sunday for brunch, along with scrambled eggs, fried potatoes, toasted bagels, and what she called "Farmer's Chop Suey" a mixture of small curd cottage cheese, sliced scallions, sliced radishes, diced celery and green peppers and a little sour cream to make it creamier.
I made it sweeter than hers and my family likes it better.

Sweet Noodle Pudding (Kugel)
About 10 ounces cooked and drained medium wide egg noodles
1/8 cup melted butter or margarine
1 cup sour cream
1 (8 ounce) package small curd cottage cheese
12 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
3 large eggs (separated)
1 (16 ounce) jar Strawberry jam
Topping:
3 cups crushed Corn Flakes
1/8 cup melted butter or margarine
1 tablespoon cinnamon
4 tablespoons granulated sugar
Beat egg yolks in a large bowl. Add butter, sour cream, cottage cheese, raisins, and cooked egg noodles. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form and then fold into noodle mixture. Place into a greased 9-inch x 13-inch Pyrex baking dish. Dot with generous spoonfuls or Strawberry jam.
Mix all topping ingredients together, mixing well. Sprinkle on top of noodle mixture and pat down slightly.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 1 hour or until sides are brown. Let cool for about 10 minutes. Cut into generous squares and serve while still warm.
