Ingredients (Servings: 6)
- 12 oz egg noodles (wide or medium)
- 1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, melted
- 4 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder)
- 1 1/2 cups grated parmesan cheese, divided
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch metal baking pan.
2. Cook the Noodles
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook until just al dente according to package instructions. Drain well.
3. Prepare the Garlic Butter
Melt the butter in a bowl or saucepan. Stir in the minced garlic (or garlic powder) until well combined and fragrant.
4. Coat the Noodles
Return drained noodles to the pot. Pour the garlic butter over them and toss gently until fully coated.
5. Add Parmesan Cheese
Mix in 1 cup of grated parmesan cheese, tossing until evenly distributed and lightly clinging to the noodles.
6. Transfer to Baking Dish
Spread the noodles evenly into the prepared baking pan.
7. Add Topping
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
8. Bake
Place in the oven and bake for 18–22 minutes, until the cheese is melted, lightly golden, and edges begin to crisp.
9. Optional Broil
For a crispier top, broil for 1–2 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
10. Rest and Serve
Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve warm, scooping through the golden crust to enjoy the buttery, cheesy layers.
