For the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In a small bowl, whisk together the 2 egg yolks and sour cream. Add this to the flour mixture and mix until a dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
