Equipment
- measuring cups and spoons
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 2 pounds green grapes washed and dry
- 2 pounds red grapes washed and dry
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- ½ cup pecans chopped
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, add the cream cheese, sour cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla. Use an electric hand mixer (or stand mixer) to beat together until smooth.
- Place the grapes in a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese mixture, and gently stir to combine until all the grapes are covered.
- Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to chill.
- Just before serving, transfer to a serving bowl, and sprinkle the brown sugar and chopped pecans on top.
Notes
- Use softened cream cheese so it is easy to blend with the other ingredients.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The pecans will soften and the brown sugar will melt into the salad, but it still tastes great!
- Can be made up to one day ahead of time. Leave the pecans and brown sugar off until just before serving.
