Wash the glutinous rice and add a little water. Put it into the rice cooker and steam it. After steaming, use a rolling pin to smash and stir the steamed glutinous rice until it is sticky. Add a small amount of water to the dried cranberries (red dates) and steam in the steamer for 10 minutes, pour off the excess water in the bowl after steaming. Take a mold or plastic box and line it with plastic wrap. Spread the glutinous rice evenly on the bottom of the box, about 1 to 2 centimeters thick. Spread a layer of dried cranberries on top.

Spread another layer of glutinous rice, another layer of dried cranberries, and another layer of glutinous rice until it's all done. Cover the surface with plastic wrap. Press down something heavy and put it in the fridge to chill. When the glutinous rice cake is fully formed, you can take it out and cut it into pieces to serve. If you like, sprinkle some sugar when eating taste is also very good.
