1
Place a sieve over a large bowl and set aside. Warm cream and milk in a mid-sized pot over medium heat. Meanwhile, whisk egg yolks and sugar for about 3-5 minutes or until pale and creamy. Whisk in matcha and salt. When cream mixture comes to a simmer, temper egg/matcha mixture by slowing ladling in about a 1/2 cup of warm cream into eggs while whisking constantly. Slowly pour egg mixture into cream mixture while whisking constantly. Continue to whisk for 3-5 minutes or until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
2
Pour ice cream base through sieve into bowl to remove any lumps. Stir in vanilla. Cool at room temperature over a wire rack. When cool, refrigerate 4-6 hours or up to 24 hours. Freeze in ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions. Line an 8 x 8 inch pan with parchment. Pour ice cream into pan, cover with plastic wrap and place in freezer to set up completely. I suggest freezing the ice cream the day before composing the sandwiches.
3
Using a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat butter, tahini and sugars for about 3 minutes or until light and creamy. Add egg and vanilla, and beat to combine. Add dry ingredients and blend over low speed until just combined. Refrigerate for several hours until firmed or preferably overnight.
4
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat. Add sesame seeds to a small bowl and mix. Using a tablespoon scoop or two spoons, spoon rounds of dough and dip into sesame seeds. I dipped one half into the seeds and lightly sprinkled the seeds on the other half. Transfer to baking sheet spaced two inches apartment. Slightly press down tops. Place in freezer to firm up again for 5 minutes before baking. Bake 12-14 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes, transfer to wire rack and cool completely. Bake in batches, as needed.
5
Using a round cutter the size of the cookies, punch out rounds of ice cream. Use a small offset spatula to place ice cream round on a cookie and top with another cookie. Eat immediately or freeze until ready to eat. The cookies will start to become soggy after several days in the freezer, so I recommend filling the cookies close to the time you want to eat them. Enjoy.
