directions
1. Center a rack in oven and heat to 350 degrees. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin and set aside.
2. Cook noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain noodles and return to pot, then toss with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Meanwhile, whisk cottage cheese, sour cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, remaining 3 tablespoons butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a generous pinch of pepper in a large bowl.
3. Stir in cooked noodles and raisins (if using). Scoop 1/3 cup of mixture into each muffin cup, then spoon about 1/2 teaspoon jam onto center of each.
4. Place muffin tin on a baking sheet and bake until kugel is set and top is lightly golden, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then run a paring knife around edge of each cup and gently remove from pan. Serve warm.
