Prepare Fig Filling. Heat oven to 375º. Beat brown sugar, shortening,

vanilla and egg in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix

with spoon. Stir in flour and salt.

Divide dough into thirds. Pat each third into rectangle, 12 × 4 inches, on

waxed paper. Spoon one third of the filling lengthwise down center of each

rectangle in 1 1/2-inch-wide strip. Fold sides of dough over filling,

using waxed paper to help lift and overlapping edges slightly. Press

lightly to seal. Cut into 1-inch bars. Place seam sides down about 1 inch

apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until light

brown. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.

frequently, until thickened.
