Preheat the oven to 180°C. For the filling, in a bowl, beat the cream cheese with Yoplait Greek Yoghurt No Added Sugar until you achieve a smooth mixture. Fill a pastry bag with a plain tip and refrigerate. Heat a small pot over medium heat with the water until it reaches a boiling point, add the salt, sugar, cinnamon stick, nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Let it infuse for a few minutes. Remove the cinnamon, add the flour all at once, and mix well until a thick dough forms, remove from heat and cool. Divide the mixture into 3 equal parts and color one with red dye and the other with green. Mix very well until integrated and pour the dough into three pastry bags with a star tip. Shape the churros on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, bake for about 30 minutes. Sprinkle with sugar while still hot. With the help of a wooden stick, pierce the churros. Fill with the yoghurt mixture and enjoy.
