Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook until al dente, following package directions. Drain and toss with 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter to prevent sticking.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
Add the diced onion to the skillet with the beef. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato sauce, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and softened cream cheese. Stir until smooth. Add the cooked egg noodles to the mixture, tossing to coat evenly.
In a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, layer half of the noodles, followed by half of the beef mixture. Repeat with the remaining noodles and beef.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Optional: Garnish with sliced green onions before serving for a burst of freshness.
Serve hot and enjoy your hearty Sour Cream Noodle Delight!
