Add the egg, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and orange juice and continue to cream until smooth. Add 2 1/2 cups of the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until the dough comes together, adding flour until the dough is pliable. It will be slightly sticky. Roll into a ball, using the remaining flour if needed, flatten, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 to 3 hours or overnight. To make the filling, place walnuts, lemon, orange, Triple Sec, figs, cinnamon, marmalade, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and 1/2 cup sugar in a food processor and process until chopped but not pureed. You should have approximately 2 cups. Set aside until the dough is chilled. Set the oven @ 375ºF/190ºC and grease a cookie sheet. Fill a small bowl with water. Roll the dough out on a slightly floured board until it is 1/8" thick. Cut into 3" circles. Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each circle. To shape the hamantashen, first brush water around the rim of the circle with your finger. Pull the edges of the dough up to form a triangle around the filling and pinch the 3 corners together, leaving a small opening in the center. Transfer to a cookie sheet and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until the tops are golden. RECIPE FROM: https://food52.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM .... Don't try this at home...
