Ranks compare each pair with 20,000 random ingredient pairs on CompKitchen. How we score pairs

What each ingredient does

Marshmallows
Melt with the chocolate to form a sticky, binding base that holds the cereal together.
White chocolate chips
Melt into the marshmallow base, adding sweetness and helping the mixture set firm when cooled.
Crisp rice cereal
Provides the bulk and crisp texture that the melted coating binds into a firm filling.
Fruit leather wrappers
Act as the outer sheet that holds the filling and rolls up around it.

The step that matters

Cook on low heat, stirring constantly. Marshmallows and white chocolate can scorch or seize on high heat. Low heat and constant stirring melt them smoothly into an even, pliable binder.
