Wash the black and white grapes thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Remove any stems and transfer the grapes to a large mixing bowl.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well using a whisk or hand mixer until the dressing is smooth and creamy.
Pour the cream cheese dressing over the grapes in the large mixing bowl.
Using a large spoon or spatula, gently toss the grapes to evenly coat them with the dressing.
Transfer the grape mixture to a serving dish or bowl.
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top of the salad for a caramel-like sweetness.
If desired, garnish with chopped pecans for added crunch and flavor.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
