Steps:
- For Filling:
- Combine all ingredients in heavy medium saucepan. Stir over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves and mixture boils. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook until figs are very tender, about 35 minutes. Uncover and simmer until liquid is absorbed and filling is thick, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer filling to processor. Using about 5 on/off turns, process just until mixture holds together. Transfer to small bowl; cool filling. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
- For Crust:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place 13 3/4x4-inch rectangular tart pan with removable bottom onto waxed paper. Trace outline of pan bottom on paper; set paper aside. Line pan with heavy-duty foil. Grease foil; dust with matzo cake meal. Combine 2 cups pecans, sugar, ginger and salt in processor; finely grind nuts. Add egg and process until moist clumps form. Using moistened fingertips, press 1 cup dough over bottom and up sides of prepared pan (crust will be thin). Bake crust until puffed and dry looking, about 14 minutes. Transfer pan to rack; press bottom of crust lightly to flatten. Cool crust completely. Maintain over temperature.
- Stir 4 ounces chocolate in top double boiler set over simmering water until melted. Spread over bottom of crust. Spoon 1 3/4 cups filling over chocolate (reserve remaining filling for another use).
- Press remaining dough over traced rectangle on waxed paper, filling outline completely. Using paper as aid, turn dough rectangle over onto tart, aligning carefully; peel off paper. Pinch edge of crust and top dough together to seal.
- Bake tart until top is golden and dry looking, about 28 minutes. Cool tart completely in pan on rack. (Can be prepared ahead. Wrap in foil and store 1 day at room temperature or refrigerate up to 5 days.) Push up pan bottom to release tart. Peel off foil from bottom.
- If desired, dip spoon into melted chocolate and drizzle in zigzag pattern over tart; then dip pecan halves halfway into melted chocolate and arrange decoratively around edge. Chill until chocolate sets, about 30 minutes. Serve tart cold or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Prepare the pecans: Preheat the oven to 350°.
- Put the 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) of butter in a shallow baking pan with the chopped pecans and put the pan in the oven for 15- 20 minutes, stirring the pecans and melted butter every few minutes, until the fragrance is wonderfully toasty.
- Watch carefully near the end to avoid burning.
- Remove from pan and set aside.
- Grease and flour three 8 or 9-inch round layer cake pans.
- Prepare the cake: In the large bowl of an electric mixer, cream the 3/4 cup (1 1/2) sticks of butter.
- Beat in the 2 cups of sugar, creaming well.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt.
- Add the 2 teaspoons of vanilla to the milk.
- Beat the flour mixture into the batter in thirds, alternating with the milk mixture.
- Fold in 1 1/3 cups of the butter-toasted pecans into the cake batter.
- Divide batter equally into the prepared pans.
- Bake for about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Cool and remove from pans.
- Prepare the frosting: Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over low-medium heat and stir in the flour.
- Stir until all of the flour has been moistened or at least colored a little by the butter.
- Stir in the milk just a little at a time, stirring constantly and incorporating all the milk each time before adding more, working to incorporate all the flour and avoid lumps.
- Continue until all the milk is in and the mixture is thickened and smooth.
- Transfer to the small bowl of an electric mixer, and beat to remove any lumps you missed.
- Cool completely.
- When the flour mixture is cool, beat in the teaspoon of vanilla, then the softened butter.
- Add the 1 cup of sugar, and beat 2 minutes at medium speed, until the mixture is fluffy and no graininess from sugar remains.
- Fold in the fat-free Cool Whip and the remaining 2/3 cup of butter-toasted pecans.
- Fill and frost the top of the cake.
