Baklava
Prepare the Baklava
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer 10 sheets of phyllo dough, brushing each sheet with melted butter. Combine walnuts, sugar, and cinnamon, and sprinkle over the dough. Continue layering phyllo and walnut mixture until all ingredients are used, finishing with 10 layers of phyllo on top. Cut into squares and bake for 45-50 minutes until golden.

Churn the Ice Cream
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a container and freeze until firm.
