Using a saucepan melt the butter, and using a brush grease really good a baking pan.
Brush with butter a phyllo sheet and crease it with your hands. Preheat oven to 380 degrees.
Move the creased phyllo in the baking pan and continue brushing with butter the other sheets and place them in the pan.
When all the leaves are in the pan, bake the pie for 20 minutes to brown and crisp the phyllo.
Place a saucepan over medium heat, add the milk, sugar, zest and cinnamon stick. Let it simmer for 10 minutes (we don't want to boil the mixture), stirring occasionally.
After the 20 minutes of baking the phyllo, remove the pan and pour lugs of the milk mixture over the phyllo pastry.
Return the pan in the oven and bake 25 minutes more.
When it's ready, remove from the oven and sift the confectioners sugar and ground cinnamon
