Repeat with 9 more sheets until you have 10 sheets in the pan.", "Mix walnuts and cinnamon. Spread 1 cup of the nut mixture on the butter sheets.", "Repeat 2 more times. And finish with 10 buttered sheets.", "The order is: 10 sheets / 1 cup nuts / 10 sheets / 1 cup nuts / 10 sheets / 1 cup nuts / 10 sheets", "Use a sharp knife to cut into diamond or square shapes all the way to the bottom of the pan.", "Bake for about 50 minutes until baklava is golden and crisp.", "Remove baklava from oven and immediately spoon sauce over it.
