Ilene’S Cheese Manicotti

• 3/4 cup Ricotta
• 3/4 pound Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese, grated
• 8 ounces Manicotti Noodles
• 1 jar Your Favorite Pasta Sauce
• 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
• 1 pinch Salt & Pepper, to taste
• 3 pieces Eggs, lightly beaten

1. Preheat over to 400 degrees F.
2. Cook noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al denote. Drain and transfer to a lightly oiled rimmed baking sheet.
3. Drain ricotta, if necessary, and combine in a medium bowl with mozzarella, eggs, melted butter, and parmesan cheese. Mix well. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
4. Use a piping bag to stuff the cheese mixture into each manicotti noodle.
5. Cover the bottom of a 13"x9" baking dish with the pasta sauce (and any leftover cheese filling). Arrange the stuffed manicotti in the baking dish. Top with the remaining sauce and then the 1/3 cup of Parmesan cheese. Bake manicotti until bubbling and lightly browned on top 30-40 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
