Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Mix the melted butter and oil together in a small bowl.

Spread one of the phyllo leaves on a cookie sheet, and brush it with half of the butter and oil mixture.
-
Place the confectioners’ sugar in a sieve, and sprinkle about half of it evenly over the phyllo leaf.
-
Place the second phyllo leaf on top, aligning it with the first, and repeat the buttering and sugaring procedure, using the rest of the butter-oil mixture and sugar in the sieve.
-
With a large, sharp knife, cut the stacked phyllo leaves into twelve equal squares, four running the length of the rectangle and three across the width.
-
Bake the squares at 400 degrees F for 7 to 8 minutes, until they are well browned, crisp, and glazed on top.
-
Using a thin spatula, remove the squares from the cookie sheet, and cool them on a rack.
-
At serving time, place a phyllo square on each of the four plates.
-
Using a spoon, scrape a shaving of ice cream (about 1 ounce) for each serving and mound the shavings on top of the phyllo squares on the plates.
-
Stack another phyllo square on top of each ice cream mound, and add another shaving of ice cream.
-
Top the desserts with the remaining phyllo squares, and sprinkle on the remaining confectioners’ sugar as a decoration, if desired.
