Ingredients

  • 3 cups green grapes rinsed, dried, sliced in half
  • 3 cups red grapes rinsed, dried, sliced in half
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 5 tablespoons brown sugar divided
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup toasted pecans roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Rinse, dry, and slice your grapes in half. Set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla, and 3 tablespoons brown sugar.
  • Mix to completely combine.
  • Add in the grapes and stir to evenly coat them.
  • If ready to serve, sprinkle with remaining brown sugar and toasted pecans.
  • If making ahead, cover and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. When serving, sprinkle with brown sugar and toasted pecans. Enjoy!

Notes

  • be sure to use seedless grapes. picking seeds out of your teeth is never fun.
  • want to make it even lighter? use cool whip frozen whipped topping instead of sour cream.
  • you can use grapes of just one color or you can use green and red grapes.
  • keep the brown sugar and pecan topping separate until ready to serve to keep them from getting soggy.
  • this is best enjoyed chilled but you can serve it at room temperature.
