Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Flip the slices over so the mayonnaise side faces down. Spread 1 tablespoon of cranberry sauce on the unmayonnaised side of 2 of the bread slices.
Layer 3 ounces of turkey breast slices on each of the cranberry-sauce-topped bread slices.
Add 2 ounces of sharp cheddar cheese slices on top of the turkey on each sandwich.
Place the remaining 2 slices of bread on top, mayonnaise side up, to complete each sandwich.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of softened butter to the skillet and let it melt, spreading it evenly.
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on the first side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crisp.
Flip the sandwiches carefully and add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool for 2 minutes before slicing in half and serving.
