Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9x13 inch pan.

Chop nuts and toss with cinnamon. Unroll Phyllo dough. Cut whole stack to fit pan. Cover Phyllo dough with a damp cloth. Place 2 sheets of dough in pan, butter thoroughly. Repeat until you have 8 sheets layered. Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons of nut mixture on too. Top with 2 sheets of dough, butter, nut, layering as you go. The top layer should be about 6-8 sheets deep.

Remove Baklava from oven and immediately spoon sauce over it. Let cool. Serve in cupcake papers. Freezes well. Leave uncovered or it will get soggy.
