Ok, since I keep having requests for this recipe, I thought I would put it on my blog so you don't have to call, e-mail, or text me and then wait for me to find the recipe and then actually remember to send it to you. Sorry, I don't have a picture to post with it right now. And for anyone who hasn't eaten this whenI have made it, I only call it salad to make it sound healthy. It is soooo yummy!
Grape Salad
Filling
2 lbs grapes (1 lb red & 1 lb green)
2- 8 oz pkgs cream cheese or neufchatel cheese
1 cup sour cream
1/2 to 1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Mix cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, and vanilla with mixer then stir in grapes with a spoon. Put in refrigerator.
Topping
1 cup pecans (can use more)
3/4 of a stick butter (use more if needed depending on how many pecans you use)
1/2 cup brown sugar
Melt butter, add brown sugar and nuts. Bake at 350 F for 15 - 20 minutes (do not overbake or it will be so hard it will break your teeth once it has cooled). Cool mixture a few minutes then sprinkle over grape mixture. Can be served right away, but I like to refrigerate mine until the topping gets hard first.
And just to be clear, I am not the original creator of this recipe. It was given to me by Glenda Easley, a friend of my hubby's parents. By far one of my favorite recipes I have ever recieved.
