I think not. That much butter would make it melt. I use James martins jam drop recipe. 60z flour, 3oz icing sugar, 3oz cornflour and although he gave the amount of butter, I just add it after, enough to make crumbs, then add a teeny drop of water to bind, then bake. The water helps form the balls easily, evaporates so you get the proper texture after baking. I think it was tbsps butter???
