How to make Spider Web Layered Taco Dip

The 1st Layer: Layer the refried beans at the bottom layer of a pie dish. Heat it in the oven for 5-10 min. Then refrigerate for 20 min.

The 2nd Layer: The next layer will be that of sour cream and cream cheese. So beat sour cream and cream cheese along with taco seasoning in a medium sized mixing bowl using a hand held mixer or just use a whisk until beated smooth. Layer this over the Refried Beans Layer.

The 3rd Layer: Pour Guacamole over the layer of sour cream. If you're making homemade Guacamole, you can use that as well.

The spider web: Now, combine sour cream and milk in a small mixing bowl. Spoon this mixture in a squirting bottle or piping bag or zip lock bag. Snip off the edge and make spider web pattern over the Guacamole layer.

Add the toppings: Add shredded cheddar cheese around the spider web.Top with black olive slices, diced tomatoes, chopped jalapeno rings and cilantro.

Serve: Add a plastic spider in the center or make a faux spider using olives.

Hint: Tightly cover with foil or cling wrap and Refrigerate the dip after adding the final layer of guacamole or else it will turn brown if kept outside. Draw the spider web design right before serving.
