Chocolate Covered Cherry Cookies

I've been making this cookie for years,
They do get stale fast, so I freeze them.
Don't hesitate to make these. They're wonderful!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 (10 ounce) jar maraschino cherries
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Beat the butter and sugar together in a bowl.
Add egg and vanilla and beat well.
Add the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda,
and baking powder and stir until smooth.
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls.
Place on ungreased cookie sheet.
Press center of each ball with thumb.
Drain cherries and reserve juice.
Place a cherry in indentation of each cookie ball.
In a saucepan, heat condensed milk and chocolate chips
until chips are melted. Stir in 4 teaspoons of cherry juice.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of mixture over each cherry
and spread to cover cherry.
Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes.
