  • “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!”

  • “awesome — just like grandma used to make! 🙂 i used this recipe for our break fast. it got rave reviews from all who hoovered it down. thanks so much!”

  • “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’ShvatThanks for you for a great recipe!”

  • “YUM!I subbed blueberries for the raisins and forgot to add the second portion of butter but it turned out to be a virtually perfect kugel!Thanks so much Mirj!”

  • “I keep forgetting to review this!I made it a few months back for an Easter breakfast and it was very popular – loved by many whom I suspect may not have ever had kugel before.Thanks for sharing this lovely recipe!”

  • “The is a fantastic Kugel recipe! My whole kitchen had the most delicious aroma for quite some time! It tasted even better than it looked and it looked wonderful!I love kugel! Thank you for sharing!!! I added more raisins as we love them and upped the anti on the vanilla! I baked it at 350 Farenheit for 60 minutes covered with foil and for ten minutes more without the foil! I was afraid it would dry out on top. Worked out great for me.Always, Jelly :)”

  • “Very tasty.I used dried apricots (since it is what my mother in law uses when she makes hers).Thanks for the recipe!”

  • “This is so so yummy.I made four of them within 3 days.Everyone loved it and couldn’t get enough.I added extra vanilla and sugar to make it a bit sweeter.The second time I made it, my boyfriend accidentally brought home all FAT free ingredients, and surprisingly it still turned out terrific!”

  • “Yummy!!I just made this today and am freezing it for Thanksgiving.And since it’s Thanksgiving, I used dried cranberries rather than the raisons.This is my first kugel and I was really torn between this one and one with applesauce, but I’m very happy with this one.The cranberries are a great addition.Thanks for a great recipe!”

  • “It was so easy to make and everyone LOVED it. I probably added a little more sugar for sweetness and left out the raisins and it was fabulous.”

  • “i as asked to bring a kugel for ny s eve and i picked this one which i embelished with pecans on top= everyone was raving about it.this one i think it was awesome! i added cream cheese, cream, extra sour cream, etc. in the end this was the only dish at the buffet that was totally gone. this is now my favorite kugel, a keeper.update, 9/23/07, i made this recipe for the kosher forum kugel tutorial and we ate it for the yom kippur break fast. my kids loved it and said it tasted just like it’s name. we ate the whole pan.”

  • “I knew that I could always count on you for some great dairy recipes!Thanks Mirj – Shavuot will be really delicious thanks to you!”

  • “Delicious! It was absolutely scrumptious! The only thing I did differently is put in some Ricotta that we had left over and I used less sour cream because of it. Thanks for the fabulous recipe!”

  • “Made it and everyone enjoyed it.Thank you!”
