Ingredients

Salad:

2 lbs green seedless grapes
2 lbs red seedless grapes
8 oz sour cream
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract (to taste)

Topping:

1 cup brown sugar (to taste)
1 cup crushed pecans (to taste)

Instructions

Instructions Step 1:

Thoroughly wash the green and red grapes, then pat them completely dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Set aside in a large bowl.

Step 2:

In a separate large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, sour cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer or whisk until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.

Step 3:

Gently fold the grapes into the creamy mixture using a spatula, being careful not to bruise the fruit. Stir until all grapes are fully coated.

Step 4:

Transfer the creamy grape mixture into a large serving dish or trifle bowl. Smooth the top with a spatula for an even presentation.

Step 5:

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and crushed pecans. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the surface of the grape salad.

Step 6:

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the topping to settle into the salad.

Step 7:

Serve chilled and enjoy a spoonful of this cool, creamy, and crunchy dessert!

Notes

Cooking Note(s)

Make sure the grapes are thoroughly dried after washing to prevent the creamy mixture from becoming watery.
Softening the cream cheese before mixing is crucial to achieve a smooth texture without lumps.
The dish is best enjoyed cold and ideally prepared the night before serving.
