1. In the stand mixer, using the paddle attachment, sift flour and salt in mixing bowl. Cut and add cold butter into the mixing bowl distributing evenly, and mix at low speed until the butter is broken into smaller pieces and coated with flour, about 15-20 seconds. You want to still see larger pieces of butter throughout.
2. Continue at a low speed, add the egg yolks, and gradually the ice water, mixing until the water is absorbed and the dough comes together, then stop mixing, about 10 seconds. DO NOT overmix.
3. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface, and dust the top of the dough as well and work with your hands to pat down and form a rectangle, but still maintaining a thickness to about ¾ inch. Wrap with saran wrap tightly and place in the refrigerator to chill for 20 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator and roll out to about ½ inch thickness and fold in thirds, envelope style. Wrap again, chill for another 20 minutes, and repeat this one more time.
4. The final rolling and wrapping, place in a zip-lock bag and chill for 4 hours or overnight.

1. Whisk the flour and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside.
2. Preheat the oven to 375°F and position a rack in the center of the oven. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper.
3. Working as quickly as possible, place a small mound of filling (about 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon) in the center of each square. If the filling flavor you're using is relatively smooth you can spoon it into a small freezer bag, snip off a tiny bottom corner and squeeze the filling onto the squares. This works particularly well with the poppy and almond flavors.
4. Arrange the kiffles 1 inch apart on the parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake until barely golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute, then carefully transfer the kiffles to cooling racks.
