French Cream with Sugared Grapes Recipe

 

Ingredients

• 1 cup (8 ounces) BREAKSTONE'S® Sour Cream
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
• 1/4 cup cold water
• 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Seedless green and red grapes
• Additional sugar

Directions

• In a large saucepan, combine sour cream and cream until well blended. Gradually stir in sugar. Cook and stir over medium heat just until mixture is warm and sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat.
• In a small microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water; let stand for 1 minute. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 40 seconds. Stir; let stand for 1 minute or until gelatin is completely dissolved. Stir into sour cream mixture.
• In a small bowl, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy. Gradually add gelatin cream mixture and vanilla just until combined. Pour into a 4-cup mold coated with cooking spray. Chill for at least 4 hours or until set.
• Dip grapes into water and shake off excess moisture; dip into sugar, turning to coat. Unmold dessert onto a serving platter; surround with sugared grapes. Yield: 6 servings.
