Steps

1

In a springform pan, layer three sheets of phyllo dough, brushing each with melted butter and sprinkling with the nut mixture. Repeat these steps 3 to 4 times, depending on your preference.
2

Beat the cream cheese and sugar together. Add the yogurt and heavy cream, then the eggs, vanilla, and flour. Pour the cheesecake mixture into the pan and bake in a water bath at 340°F (170°C), top and bottom heat, for 1 hour.
3

Note: If the top of the cheesecake browns before the baking time is up, cover it with a pan or foil to prevent burning. After baking, turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for another hour.
4

Remove from the oven and pour syrup over the cheesecake.
5

When serving, garnish with pistachios and rose petals.
