Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 400°F. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and strawberry jam until well blended. Fold in the whipped cream and, if desired, food coloring. Refrigerate the filling until ready to assemble.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, and salt. Stir in the egg whites and vanilla until smooth. Whisk in the melted and cooled butter until well combined. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Working in batches of 4 cookies at a time, drop the batter by 1-1/2 teaspoon portions onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 4 inches apart. Bake for 5-8 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned.

Immediately loosen each cookie and gently curl it around a wooden spoon handle. Press lightly to seal and hold until set, about 20 seconds. Transfer the shaped cookies to waxed paper to cool completely. If the cookies become too cool to shape, return them to the oven for 1 minute to soften.

Just before serving, spoon or pipe the chilled strawberry cream filling into the cookie shells. If desired, dip the ends of the filled cookies into the chopped fresh strawberries. Refrigerate any leftovers.
