You might want to double this recipe, so you can have plenty of cookies to share.

In a med bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together margarine, brown sugar, and honey until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Add dry ingredients and mix in until dough is well combined and forms a ball. Flatten ball into a disc, wrap well, and refrigerate for several hours, or until dough is firm. (Dough can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.)

Preheat oven to 350 deg F. Remove dough from refrigerator and roll out on lightly floured surface to 1/8" thickness. Using a cookie-cutter or thin-edged glass, cut out 2 1/2 - 3" rounds of dough. Gather scraps, press together and roll out again to cut more rounds. (You should have about 32.)

Place 1 tsp filling in the center of each round. Fold up edges by thirds, leaving an opening in the center, and firmly pinch edges together where they meet, so the finished shape is triangular.

Place Hamantaschen about 1" apart on lightly oiled cookie sheets, and bake until lightly browned, about 20 min.
