Delicious Grape Salad

This is one of my favorite recipes handed down from my great aunt. It is simple to make and looks very pretty for the holidays or any type of shower - baby shower, wedding shower or even housewarming party. This recipe will serve several, but for the holidays when I know there will be more than 10 people, I double the recipe. Hope you enjoy!!

Ingredients

• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
• 1 individual package graham crackers, crushed
• 4 cups seedless green grapes
• 4 cups seedless red grapes

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Beat the sour cream, cream cheese, white sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl with an electric mixer on Low speed until smooth. Spread enough graham cracker crumbs to cover the bottom into a glass serving bowl, and top with about 1/3 of the cream cheese mixture in a layer. Spread green grapes, then red grapes over the cheese filling. Save a few green and red grapes for a garnish. Repeat the layers several more times, ending with a layer of cream cheese filling. Garnish the top of the salad with sprinkled brown sugar and the reserved grapes.

Step 2

Cover the salad with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until thoroughly cold, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
