For a smoother bean layer, blend the refried beans with a tablespoon of water or chicken broth before spreading. Get creative with your spider! Use different sizes of olives or even add small pimento pieces for extra detail. If you don't have a piping bag, a plastic sandwich bag with a tiny corner snipped off works perfectly for creating the spiderweb design. Make ahead tip: The dip can be assembled several hours in advance. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Add the spider and final garnishes just before serving to prevent the olives from drying out. Spice it up! Add a layer of finely diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the sour cream for an extra kick.

Follow The Directions
01
StepFoundation of Flavor: Spread the guacamole evenly across the bottom of a round serving dish. (5 minutes)
02
StepCreamy Kick: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of sour cream with the taco seasoning until well blended. Gently spread this seasoned sour cream mixture over the guacamole layer. (5 minutes)
03
StepCheesy Lava: Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the seasoned sour cream layer, creating a molten cheese effect. Then, carefully pour the salsa over the cheese, ensuring it's completely covered. (5 minutes)
04
StepBean Blanket: Warm the refried black beans in a microwave-safe container until softened, making them easier to spread. (3 minutes). Spread the warmed beans evenly over the salsa layer, leaving a 1-inch border of salsa visible around the edge. (5 minutes)
05
StepWeb Weaving: Place the remaining 1/2 cup of sour cream into a piping bag or a plastic bag with a snipped corner. Create a spiderweb pattern on top of the bean layer by piping concentric circles and dragging a toothpick from the center outwards to create the web effect. (10 minutes)
06
StepArachnid Accent: Craft the spider by cutting the large black olive in half lengthwise to form the spider's body. Slice four of the sliced olives in half to create eight legs. Arrange the spider body and legs on top of the sour cream web. (5 minutes)
07
StepGhoulish Garnish: Arrange the remaining sliced black olives and chopped green onions around the edge of the dip, adding the final chilling touches. (5 minutes)
