1 . Stage

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt for crust in a bowl. Cut butter into the mixture with 2 knives or a pastry blender until crumbly; do not overmix. Stir in egg yolks. Press 1/2 of the mixture into a 9x13-inch baking pan, and set the remainder aside for the topping.
