Categories     appetizer

Time 11m

Yield 20 to 25 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
1 (1.25-ounce) package taco seasoning mix
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1 (16-ounce) can black refried beans
1 (12-ounce) package shredded Mexican cheese
1/2 cup fresh chunky salsa (from your grocery's deli section)
1 (2.25-ounce) can chopped black olives
1 cup guacamole (from your grocery's deli section)
1 (15-ounce) can whole black beans, drained and rinsed
4 to 6 bags blue tortilla chips

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix cream cheese and 1/2 packet of taco seasoning with 1 cup of the sour cream (hold the rest of the sour cream to decorate). Set mixture aside.
  • Spread a thin layer of refried beans in the bottom of a microwaveable serving dish. Add a layer of shredded cheese. Heat dish in microwave for 1 minute, until cheese is slightly melted.
  • Drain the salsa and layer it over the cheese. Drain the olives and layer over the salsa. Add a layer of the sour cream mixture. Add a layer of guacamole.
  • To decorate the top, spoon a medium sized dollop of sour cream in the center. This is the spider's "nest."
  • Spoon the rest of the sour cream into an air-tight bag. Cut a very small piece out of 1 of the bottom corners of the bag and, starting at the outer edge of the dip, pipe a thin circle around the perimeter. Create another circle half way between the perimeter circle and the center dollop, creating 3 circles.
  • Using a knife blade, toothpick or skewer, drag a thin line of the sour cream from the "nest" outward toward the edge of the dish. Continue making lines all around the "nest" to complete the spider web design. Position whole black beans onto the sour cream "web."
  • Embellish with plastic decorative spiders. Serve with a bowl of blue tortilla chips, and watch your guests scurry to get a bite!

Seven Layer Spider Dip Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: dried pinto beans, olive oil, garlic, paprika, taco seasoning, salt, sour cream, medium ripe avocados, medium lime, shredded mexican cheese blend, medium tomato, black olive, scallions

Provided by Chaitra Kishore

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups dried pinto beans
1 tablespoon olive oil,
2 cloves garlic, minced or crushed
½ teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
salt, to taste
½ cup sour cream, 2 tbsp sour cream (for the spider web)
2 medium ripe avocados
1 medium lime, (use half for avocado & half for the pico de gallo)
¼ cup shredded mexican cheese blend
½ medium tomato, 1/4 medium red onion, both finely-diced
1 handful black olive, sliced into thin circles, olive spider or plastic spider
1 handful scallions, (sliced into thin circles) or cilantro (finely chopped)

Steps:

  • Set up a clear, round corningware dish (i.e. a Pyrex baking dish).
  • For your first layer of beans, cook 2 cups (340 G) dry pinto beans in an Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker. Let cool. Transfer to a blender. Add a bit of water and blend to a smooth paste (about 1 cup). Alternatively, you can use an 8 oz can of refried beans.
  • Heat 1 tbsp oil in a sauté pan on medium heat and add garlic. Sauté till aromatic.
  • Add bean paste and sprinkle in paprika, taco seasoning, and salt to taste. Mix well. Let the beans cook for a few minutes and then take off flame. Spread this paste on the bottom of the bean dip, creating an even layer.
  • Then, layer sour cream on top evenly. On top of this, layer the avocados, mashed fully and mixed with the juice of half of a medium-sized lime. (Note: Alternatively, you could use 1 cup store bought guacamole.)
  • Then, sprinkle shredded Mexican cheese along the outer layer of the dip to form a ring on top of the avocado.
  • Add your finely-diced tomatoes and red onion pieces to a small bowl. Squeeze in the juice of half a medium sized lime. Mix well. (Note: Instead of pico de gallo, you could use 2 tbsp of store bought salsa.) Spread the pico de gallo (or salsa) on top of the cheese ring.
  • Sprinkle thinly sliced black olives and thinly sliced green scallions on top.
  • To make the spider web: add 2 tbsp of sour cream to a small squirt bottle, thinning out with a little water if needed.. Squeeze out the sour cream and draw a spider web on top of the avocado.
  • Top with a friendly olive spider or plastic spider and serve alongside tortilla chips.
