Stars-and-Stripes Layered Dip

Layer refried black beans, salsa con queso and guacamole in a 4-qt. rectangular dish. Sort out about 1 cup blue chips; slightly break into large pieces.

To decorate top like a flag, spread broken chips in a 4-in. sq. in left corner on top of guacamole in baking dish. Cut 22 stars from cheese using a 3/4-in. star-shape cookie cutter; arrange on top of chips.

For stripes, spoon sour cream into a large disposable pastry bag fitted with a wide basketweave piping tip, flat side up. Starting about 1 in. from the top edge of the baking dish, pipe stripes horizontally on top of the guacamole layer, leaving space between the stripes. Spoon pico de gallo in between the sour cream stripes. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Serve dip with remaining chips.
