Filling: Increase oven temperature to 500°F. Cut room temperature cream cheese into small chunks. For easier cutting, you may also cut into chunks before allowing to come to room temperature. In standing mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat cream cheese at medium-low speed to break up and soften slightly, about 1 minute. Scrape beater and bottom and sides of bowl well with rubber spatula; add salt and about half of sugar and beat at medium-low speed until combined, about 1 minute.
