Creamy Grape Salad
This creamy grape salad has a sweet and tangy dressing that makes it fabulous. It is a perfect make ahead dish for the holidays, BBQ, potlucks and more. It can be served as a simple dessert, but we love it as a side dish. It adds a burst of juicy sweetness to the meal.
Servings: 8 servings (about 8 cups)
Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 pounds seedless grapes about 6 cups
Topping
- ¼ cup chopped pecans toasted
- 1 Tablespoon light brown sugar
Instructions
- Place the 4 ounces cream cheese in a large bowl. Beat until it is smooth and creamy.
- Add the ½ cup sour cream, 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 Tablespoon light brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Add the 2 pounds seedless grapes and toss to coat.
- Cover and chill for at least and hour but up to overnight.
- Before serving, stir the salad to make sure the grapes are evenly coated. Transfer to serving dish if desired. Then, top with ¼ cup chopped pecans and 1 Tablespoon light brown sugar.
- Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge. They will stay good for several days, though the pecans will loose their crunch over time.
