These churro cheesecake bars are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth craving. A deliciously sweet and creamy cream cheese filling is hugged by two flakey puff pastry layers that are baked to the perfect crisp. Then, all of that is topped by a cinnamon-sugar mixture that's just a delight to your tastebuds.
