NOODLE PUDDING

OK I'm sure the food is bought & the menu is planned,but I just had to give you this receipe. Maybe you'll find it irresitible & run out to get the stuff to make it!!!!!

I double this receipe & use a 9 X 13 glass pan.

3 3/4 cups (6 oz) (I use the 12 oz bag) LIGHT 'n FLUFFY medium Egg Noodles,uncooked
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter or margarine, softened
1 1/2 cups Ricotta cheese
1/2 dairy sour cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
3 eggs
1/2 cup raisins

Heat oven to 350 Grease 8 X 8 glass baking dish.
Cook noodles according to pkg directions, drain.
In large bowl, stir together butter, ricotta cheese, sour cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon & salt.
Add eggs, beating after each addition. Stir in cooked noodles & raisins.
Pour noodle mixture into prepared dish; sprinkle with additional cinnamon, if desired (I desire)
Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown.
Let stand 10 minutes.
Makes 4 to 6 servings. THAT'S why I double it!!!!!

It's like a comfort food to me. I'll put some in a bowl & warm it in the micro to eat at nite.

Don't know why I've only made it at Christmas time,guess I don't think of it. But I won't be doing all the cooking I used to do this Christmas.

Sure hope that you get a chance to make this & let me know how you like it!!!!
