Preheat oven to 350.
Blend together the soft butter, sugar, cornstarch and flour until well incorporated. Cover with plastic wrap; chill for at least 1 hour.
Using a small spoon or a scoop, form small heaps or balls of dough; place on an ungreased, cookie sheet. Use parchment paper if desired.
Bake 15 minutes until the bottoms are just starting to turn a light brown and the tops will be white.
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet; transfer carefully to a cooling rack. The cookies are very delicate, so use a very thin spatula to move them.
Let them cool completely before frosting.
frosting:
Mix the butter, sugar, vanilla, and enough milk or cream to make a spreadable consistency, but should be quite thick.
Dab it on top of the cooled cookies; garnish with some grated chocolate.
Makes about 18.
