easter recipe

This is a great recipe for a summer day picnic or cookout or for me I made it for Easter dinner!
Grape Salad:
1 (8-ounce) package of cream cheese, softened
1 (8-ounce) container of sour cream
1/2 cup of sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1 pound of seedless green grapes
1 pound of seedless red grapes
1 cup of chopped pecans
1/2 cup (or less) brown sugar

1.  In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, sour cream and vanilla.  Beat until smooth.
2.  Gently fold in grapes.  (I left whole unless they were extra large, which I then cut in half)
3.  Best made hours in advance or even the night before.
4.  When it is time to serve:  combine brown sugar and pecans.  Sprinkle on top. 
5.  Enjoy!
