Crush up your Graham Cracker sheets into crumbs (I use a rolling pin to do this)

Press your mix firmly into the bottom of an optionally lined baking dish or pan (I used 8x8)
Bake on 375F/190C for 12-15 minutes or until it starts to turn golden brown
Protein Cheesecake Bars
Add all of your ingredients into either a food processor or powerful blender
Process or blend everything together until smooth
Evenly distribute your mix on top of your crust
Optionally add whatever you want to the top like some Chocolate Chips
Bake on 325F/162C for around 30-35 minutes
Remove it from the oven, let it cool, and put it into the fridge for a couple hours (optimal cheesecake texture)
