Guests will “ooh” and “aah” when you bring in this fabulous ice-cream torte ringed with chocolaty Almond Joy bars. But this is one summer showstopper our Test Kitchen created with busy hostesses in mind. It’s super easy, feeds a crowd and can be made days ahead for convenience.

Editor's Note: If Almond Joy candy bars are used, arrange bars with almond side facing inward toward the center of the pan.
