Steps:

• Crust: Pulse flour and salt in a food processor to combine. Pulse in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 seconds. Pulse in egg yolks.
• While pulsing, add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Pulse until mixture holds together as a soft but not crumbly or sticky dough. Shape dough into a disk and wrap in plastic; refrigerate until firm and evenly moist, about 30 minutes.
• Lightly flour clean work surface and a rolling pin. Place dough in center of floured surface. Roll out dough, starting in center and rolling up to, but not over the edge. Give dough a quarter turn and continue rolling, repeating quarter turns until you have a disk about 1/8 inch thick.
• Transfer dough to a 9-inch pie dish. Gently tuck dough into pie dish, being careful not to stretch or pull dough. Let dough settle into bottom of pie dish. Take a small piece of dough and shape it into a ball. Use ball as a tool to press around bottom edges of pie dish, snugly shaping dough to pie dish without tearing it.

Add sugar, cocoa, cornmeal, and salt; whisk well to combine. Add butter-chocolate mixture, buttermilk, and vanilla; whisk well to combine. Pour into warm crust.
