Ingredients:
1 lb Walnuts, course chopped
1 lb Butter
1/2 cup Granulated sugar
1 lb Filo strudel dough
2 tsp Cinnamon
Syrup:
2 cup Sugar
2 cup Water
Instructions:
Filling: Juice of 1/2 lemon

Start with the filling. Combine walnuts, sugar and cinnamon in a
bowl. Melt the butter over medium heat, being careful not to burn.
Allow the butter to settle for a few minutes. Skim the white foamy
material from the top (clarify). With a pastry brush, butter the
baking pan. Layer the pan with 12 individual sheets of filo,
buttering each with pastry brush as they are placed. Be careful to
cover the remaining sheets of filo with a slighlty damp twoel to
avoid drying them out. Wet the walnut mixture with a small amount of
butter and mix thoroughly. apply a layer of one-half of this mixture
into the pan. Next apply five more layers of filo as before, on top
of this. Layer next with remaining walnut mixture. Apply layers of
filo dough on top of this until all is used. Chill for one-half hour.
Cut rows of pastry length-wise and then cut diagonally to make
diamond shapes. Pour remaining butter evenly over top. Pre-heat oven
to 350 degrees F. and bake until golden brown (45min to 1 hour) Pour
cooled syrup over the hot baklava until all is absorbed. Important:
syrup must be cooled and baklava hot to avoid sogginess.

To make syrup mix sugar, water, and lemon juice boil for 20 minutes.
Remember to cool before pouring over pastry.

Allow to cool to room temperature before eating.
