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.
