Ingredients
(Work: 10 minutes. Total: 1 hour 15 minutes)
1 pound wide egg noodles
1/2 cup salted butter, cut into pieces
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup raisins
8 ounces crushed pineapple, undrained
1 teaspoon salt
6 large eggs, beaten
Strawberries, for garnish (optional)
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Cook egg noodles in a large pot of boiling, salted water until done. Drain and transfer to a large bowl; toss with butter, sugar, raisins, pineapple, and salt; allow to cool slightly. Add eggs to noodle mixture, stirring to combine.
Transfer noodle mixture to a 9-by-13-inch pan and bake until golden, 45 to 50 minutes, covering with foil the last 10 minutes to prevent over-browning. Allow to cool, about 15 minutes, before cutting into squares. Garnish with strawberries, if desired. Serves 12.
