Preparation Steps
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Mix the brown sugar and 1.5 tablespoons of cinnamon in a bowl. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Mix in yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, evaporated milk, sugar, and cinnamon until blended.
Roll out one sheet of puff pastry to fit the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the sugar-coated pastry base.
Top with the second puff pastry sheet. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool on a wire rack for an hour, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours before slicing into bars.
Notes
For a decorative touch, serve with fresh mint leaves or a sprinkle of nutmeg.
