Spaghetti Pudding Recipes

GRANDMA'S MACARONI PUDDING

Steps:

• Cook the macaroni in salted water and drain.
• Whisk remaining ingredients together, add macaroni.
• Pour into ovenproof vessel of your choice (I use a Pyrex rectangular dish)sprinkle nutmeg on top and bake for about 45 minutes at 170°C This time can vary depending on the quantity of custard and macaroni. And of course on how firm or soft you want it to set. Note that I tend to just watch the custard, and take it out of the oven when it's set. Depends on how wet the macaroni was, how big eggs are, if I sub cream inches.
• I've made some changes to this recipe (added some eggs, increased heat and cooking time, as well as upping sugar) so hopefully people meet with more success. I posted the recipe as written in Grandma's cook book, but have since experimented and found she must be like famous chefs, never record the actual recipe, in case some one else copies!
• Hoping for feedback about how this version goes.

NOODLE PUDDING

• Blend together cottage cheese and cream cheese until smooth. Mix in sour cream, vanilla, sugar and eggs. When noodles are done stir together 1/2 cup butter and noodles in a large bowl. Combine cheese mixture and noodles; Blend well. Place all in one large casserole dish.
• To make the topping: Mix together graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar until it looks like large crumbs. Sprinkle evenly over top of noodle mixture.

VERMICELLI PUDDING

Steps:

• Bring milk, sugar, and cardamom seeds to a boil in a saucepan; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir broken vermicelli pasta and raisins into milk mixture and simmer until pasta is tender and the cream sauce has thickened, about 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and let stand until warm, about 15 minutes. If pudding is too thick, stir in a little milk.
