Make the famous sweet and creamy Grape Salad from Chicken Salad Chick at home. This easy copycat recipe combines juicy grapes, a rich cream cheese dressing, and toasted pecans for a refreshing side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lbs seedless grapes (red and green mix)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped pecans, toasted
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Wash and thoroughly dry all grapes. Place grapes in a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
  3. Add the sour cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Mix until the dressing is completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour the cream cheese dressing over the grapes. Gently fold the dressing into the grapes until they are evenly coated.
  5. Stir in the chopped pecans.
  6. Cover the bowl and chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to combine.
  7. Before serving, sprinkle the top evenly with the brown sugar.

Notes

  • For best results, use a mix of red and green seedless grapes for color and flavor variation.
  • Toast the pecans lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until fragrant before chopping and adding.
  • This salad tastes best when chilled for several hours, but do not add the brown sugar topping until just before serving to prevent it from dissolving.
  • If you want a lighter version, substitute half of the sour cream with plain Greek yogurt.
