Sift together flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Cream shortening and cream cheese. Blend in dry ingredients and mix well. Roll out on floured surface to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut into 3x1 inch strips. Make a deep groove lengthwise down the center of each cookie, using the handle of a knife. Be sure to keep ends closed. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Fill each groove with 1/2 teaspoonful jam or jelly of your choice. Bake at 350 degrees F for 10-20 minutes or until lightly browned.
