Break 10 of the candy canes into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.
Microwave white chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
Dip the edges of each candy cane piece into the melted white chocolate to act as glue, then arrange the pieces into the base of a bowl shape onto parchment paper. (Use a round object as a mold if needed.)
Allow the candy structure to cool and set completely (about 15 minutes in the fridge).
In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Carefully detach the cooled candy cane bowl from the parchment paper.
Spoon the cheese dip mixture into the candy cane bowl evenly.
Arrange the remaining whole candy canes around the dip as decorative noisemakers.
Serve with assorted crackers and vegetable sticks for dipping, and enjoy!
