Cream cheese sub for baking (in France)

Hi-
I am looking for a good sub for cream cheese for a cheesecake. I have heard about strained yogurt but I'm not sure about its use in baking. Then there is neufchatel, petit suisse and co, but I've never actually tried them. I figure someone out there already has, and can advise accordingly. Many thanks in advance.

    Neufchatel should be a fine sub for cream cheese. I often use it here instead of Philly, as it has no "gums" in it... Let us know how your cheesecake turns out!
