Whisk egg in medium bowl to blend. Gradually add molasses mixture into egg.

Using electric mixer, gradually beat molasses mixture into flour mixture until just blended.

Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to a 12x10 rectangle. (Roll thin for houses and watch cooking time, you don't want them soft OR burned)

Cut out cookies, space 1” apart on sheets. Gather scraps and repeat until all dough is used.

Bake one sheet at a time until puffed and tops are firm, about 10 minutes.

Cool on sheets 5 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool completely before decorating.
