Combine sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan. Stir in milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat, cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat.
Stir a small amount of hot filling into the egg yolks, return all to the pan. Bring to a gentle boil, cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in butter and lemon zest. Gently stir in lemon juice. Cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
Fold whipped cream and sour cream into the lemon filling. Pour into the prepared pastry shell. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
