Ingredients
- 20 pieces seedless grapes (green or red)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped pecans (or walnuts)
Directions
Step 1
Wash the grapes thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels. Ensure they are completely dry so the cream cheese mixture adheres properly.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Place the chopped pecans or walnuts in a shallow dish or plate for rolling.
Step 4
Using a teaspoon or a small spoon, scoop a small amount of the cream cheese mixture onto a grape. Spread it evenly around the grape until it is fully coated. (Tip: Using slightly damp hands can help with spreading the mixture smoothly.)
Step 5
Roll the cream cheese-coated grape in the chopped nuts, pressing gently to ensure the nuts stick well.
Step 6
Repeat the process with the remaining grapes.
Step 7
Arrange the prepared cream cheese grapes on a platter or a lined baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the coating to set.
Step 8
Serve cold as a bite-sized appetizer or snack. Enjoy!
