Gingerbread men

This is a Christmas time favorite at our house!

1 cup butter, room temperature

1 cup sugar

1 cup molasses

1 TBS vinegar

1 egg

2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp salt

4 1/2-5 cups flour

In a large bowl cream butter and sugar; set aside.  In a small saucepan heat molasses to boiling.  Pour molasses over butter and sugar and add the vinegar.  Let cool.  Add egg.  Mix in sifted dry ingredients.  Chill for at least 1 hour.  Roll out on lightly floured board and cut as desired.  Bake on well-greased or parchment-lined cookie sheets for 8-10 minutes at 350
