Directions:
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Cook the Noodles: Boil the spaghetti noodles until al dente, drain them, and set aside.

Make the Creamy Cheese Mixture: In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream, and cottage cheese until smooth and well-combined.

Prepare the Meat Sauce: Brown the ground beef, drain any excess fat, and mix it with the spaghetti sauce.

Assemble the Casserole:

Place a few slices of butter at the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish.

Add half of the cooked noodles, followed by the cream cheese mixture, spreading it evenly.

Layer the remaining noodles and top with a few more butter slices.

Pour the meat sauce mixture on top.

Bake: Cover and bake for 30 minutes.

Add Cheese: After baking, sprinkle your choice of grated cheese over the top and return the casserole to the oven for 15 more minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and bubble.

Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the cheesy, creamy goodness!

This hearty casserole is not just a meal; it’s a family tradition in the making. Make sure to enjoy every bite!
