Cream Cheese Grape Salad

Whenever my extended family gets together for holidays, everyone has the “thing” they bring. My cousin is the one that brings her grape salad. With the heat wave hitting this summer, cream cheese grape salad is becoming my go-to cold treat to take to potlucks and cookouts.

Cream cheese grape salad is an easy 5-ingredient fruit salad recipe made with red and green grapes, cream cheese, sour cream, and brown sugar.

Cream Cheese Grape Salad

There a lot of variations of this recipe on the internet. Spicy Southern Kitchen makes a very similar salad with pecans which I personally love, but I know not all people love nuts. I also was in a hurry and didn’t know where my nuts were in the midst of my kitchen remodel. Cream cheese grape salad has five simple ingredients and is a cool, refreshing side dish for any potluck or pitch-in.

Start with two pounds of red grapes and two pounds of green grapes. Pull the grapes from the stems and rinse with cold water. I make my grape salad in a trifle bowl.

In a separate small bowl combine the cream cheese at room temperature, sour cream, and brown sugar. Mix together with a hand mixer.

When smooth and creamy, pour the cream cheese and sour cream dressing over the grapes.

Stir to coat the grapes completely with the cream cheese dressing. Be sure to dig down to the bottom of the bowl to make sure all the grapes are getting coated with the cream cheese dressing.

Sprinkle more brown sugar to the top of the cream cheese grape salad. Refrigerate until you are ready to serve or head to the potluck. Be warned, people will start eating this grape salad with their fingers as soon as you set it on the counter.
