1. Prepare the Bean Layer:
– In a bowl, blend 32 oz of refried beans with 1 oz of taco seasoning using an electric hand mixer. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Cream Cheese Layer:
– In a separate bowl, combine 8 oz of room temperature cream cheese, 1 lb of sour cream, and the remaining 1 oz of taco seasoning. Use an electric hand mixer to blend until smooth.
3. Assemble the Dip:
– Choose a deep 9×13-inch dish or a deep glass trifle bowl. Note that the layers will be thinner if you use a 9×13 dish.

– Next, spread the sour cream and cream cheese mixture over the bean layer.
– Follow with a layer of guacamole.
– Add a layer of Pico de gallo or salsa.
– Sprinkle shredded mild cheddar cheese evenly over the salsa.
– Top with a handful of sliced olives.
