Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together all-purpose flour, bread flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
  3. Cream the softened butter and both sugars until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla extract until creamy.
  4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  5. Drop rounded dough onto prepared sheets, spaced 2 inches apart, aiming for about 12 cookies per sheet.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden on edges, soft in center; sprinkle with coarse salt and cool.
  7. Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.
  8. Fold sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and a pinch of salt into whipped cream. Mix in melted butterscotch chips.
  9. Spread ice cream mix into containers and freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
  10. Cut out ice cream rounds and sandwich between cooled cookies. Wrap and freeze sandwiches.

Notes

Wrap sandwiches well to prevent freezer burn. Use quality ingredients for best flavor.
