  • Place the guacamole in a new round container if desired or leave it in the container it came in if using store-bought.
  • Place about 2 Tablespoons of sour cream into a sandwich-size resealable plastic bag. With scissors, snip off just a little bit at one of the corners, the smaller the snip the thinner the spider web line will be.
  • To make the web, pipe out a cross shape onto the guacamole. Next, make diagonals across the cross shape. Next pipe small curves between the lines leaving some space as you move out toward the edge of the bowl.

Notes

Make Ahead: To store guacamole, place it in a bowl and pour a thin layer of lime juice on top of the guacamole. Cover with plastic wrap and push the plastic down to touch the guacamole. This will prevent air pockets and will keep the guacamole from browning. Store in the refrigerator for 3–4 days.
Add sour cream web and spider right before serving.
