Position knife blade in food processor bowl, and add 1/3 cup brown sugar
and next 4 ingredients. Process until smooth, and set aside.
Coat a 9-inch pieplate with cooking spray. Working with 1 phyllo sheet at a
time, coat each sheet with cooking spray. Fold phyllo sheet in half
crosswise to form a 13- x 8-1/2-inch rectangle. Gently press folded sheet
of phyllo into prepared pieplate, allowing ends to extend over edges of
pan; coat phyllo with cooking spray. Place another folded sheet of phyllo
across first sheet in crisscross design; coat
phyllo with cooking spray. Repeat procedure with remaining 6 sheets phyllo.
Spoon cream cheese mixture into phyllo crust, spreading evenly. Spoon
mounds of cranberry mixture over cream cheese mixture; swirl with a knife
for a marbled effect. Crumple edges of phyllo to fit pan and form a rim.

filling is set. Let cool on a wire rack. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
