ReplyDeleteGRAPE SALAD
2 lb green grapes
2 lb red grapes
8 oz sour cream
8 oz softened cream cheese
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Topping
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup crushed pecans
Wash, stem & dry the grapes. In a bowl, mix the sour cream, cream cheese, white sugar and vanilla until blended. (Make sure your cream cheese is soft or this mixture will be clumpy.) Stir grapes into the mixture and pour into 9x13 pan. For the topping, combine brown sugar and pecans, the sprinkle over the top of the grapes. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours (best if overnight). Enjoy!
