Stir in the Keto Chow and vanilla extract and mix until a soft dough is formed.
Let the dough rest for five minutes. If the kitchen is very warm, rest the dough in the refrigerator.
Scoop 15 dough balls onto the baking sheet. They should be approximately 0.75 oz. each, or about one Tbsp. each.

Fill each indentation with 1/2 tsp. strawberry jam.
Bake the filled cookies for about ten minutes, or until they are set and starting to brown around the edges and the jam looks cooked. Let cool.
Cookies will keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week, or in the freezer for up to three months.
