In a food processor, combine all Dough ingredients and pulse until a crumbly dough forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
While the dough chills, prepare the Filling. In a medium bowl, combine chopped Figs, Granulated Sugar, Ground Cardamom, Orange Juice, and chopped Walnuts. Mix well and set aside.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled Dough into a 12-inch circle.
Cut the dough into 12 wedges. Place a spoonful of Filling at the wide end of each wedge.
Roll up each wedge from the wide end to the point, forming a crescent shape. Place rugelach on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
While rugelach cools, prepare the Glaze. Whisk together Powdered Sugar and Milk until smooth. Drizzle over cooled rugelach.
