Method

Put the flour, sugar and butter in a food processor and pulse into breadcrumbs. Add the egg yolks, sour cream and vanilla extract and pulse until a dough forms. Be careful not to overwork this or the dough will become tough. Remove from the bowl and press together to form a disc, then wrap in cling film (plastic wrap) and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
