Berry Baked Alaska Cookies

In a medium mixing bowl, cream the Unsalted Butter (2/3 cup) and Powdered Confectioners Sugar (1/2 cup) together until well combined and a bit fluffy. Sift together the All-Purpose Flour (1 cup) and Salt (1/4 tsp), then add to butter mixture, stirring until just combined. Mix in the Dried Cranberries (1/2 cup), being careful not to overwork the dough.

Divide the dough into 6 equal parts, or 8 for smaller cookies. Roll each into a ball, then flatten with the palms of your hands. They should be fairly thick and about 3 inches wide.
