This is indeed a keeper! I made it for a church cake sale. I cut into little squares and put each in a cupcake liner. I made two 13" x 9" pans of kugle half with raisins half without. Here's to you Mrs. Dorn---KUGLES ROCK!

This was a very good dish. The first time I had tried a kugel, and it was very tasty.

I made this for a potluck retirement breakfast function and must say that it was a real hit with everyone. Passed the recipe around to others who in turn made it for other retirement functions later that week. Several people were a bit fearful because they had never made a "kugel" before, but after some late night cooking counseling sessions all was well with the world again and kugel was enjoyed by all. Needless to say, this was delicious, but one would expect nothing less from Mirjam.

Mirj, another winner! I've been wanting to make this for a long time, and tonight finally had a chance to educate my bf about Shavuot (or at least about kugel). This kugel would have made my savta proud if she was here to taste it. I ended up adding the raisins and also some dried apricots, because at my mom's house dessert kygels were always an opportunity to get rid of some dried fruit that's been sitting in the cabinets since Tu B'Shvat Thanks for you for a great recipe!
