How To Make Halloween Taco Dip

In a glass pie dish, start by layering the refried beans in the bottom, smoothing it out evenly.

Next, add the guacamole, and smooth that out for the next layer.

For the next layer, take 1 cup of the sour cream and stir in the taco seasoning. Spread this mixture over the guacamole layer.

Next, layer the salsa.

Top the salsa layer with shredded cheese.

Dice the Roma tomato and slice the green onion thinly. Sprinkle the diced tomato and green onion around the outer edge of the dish.

Add the remaining 1 cup of sour cream to a piping bag, and snip off the tip. Use this to draw your spider web on the top of the shredded cheese.

To make the spiders, divide the black olives in half (one half makes a spider body). Then, slice two halves into 4 slices to create the 8 legs.

Add as many spiders as you want! Cover the assembled Halloween taco dip with plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving time.
