Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ pounds Medium-wide noodles
1 pounds Cream cheese
½ pounds Plus 2 tablespoons butter divided use
1 pint Sour cream
1 teaspoon Sour cream
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1⅓ cup Sugar (divided use)
8 Eggs
1 can (11 oz.) mandarin oranges, drained
1 can (8 oz.) crushed pineapple
4 ounces Walnuts

Directions

Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and place in a 4 quart bowl.

Add the cream cheese, ½ pound butter and half the sour cream to the food processor work bowl; blend until smooth. Scrape down sides or work bowl. Add the remaining sour cream, vanilla, 1 cup sugar and eggs; process until combined. Gently combine with the noodles.

Stir the fruits in by hand and then pour mixture into a buttered 9 by 13 inch Pyrex dish. The mixture will almost overflow. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

When ready to bake, place in a preheated 350 degree oven for 50 minutes.

Combine the walnuts with ⅓ cup sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle mixture on top of the kugel. Dot with 2 tablespoons butter and bake for 20 minutes more. Serve warm or at room temperature.
