Not sure if you have finalised your schedule or not, but after thinking a bit, may I give two suggestions:
A) Chitose airport - Lake Toya - Asahikawa/Biei/Furano/Tomamu - Sapporo drop luggage - return car - take train to Otaru
B) Chitose airport - Asahikawa/Biei/Furano/Tomamu - Lake Toya - Sapporo drop luggage - return car - take train to Otaru - Sapporo
Otaru no need overnight, all luggage at Sapporo for the last few days. You can take the late evening train from Otaru -> Sapporo
I prefer option B, remember Noboribetsu you can dip your leg into river onsen ? After walking many days, can relax there. Also, cover the long distance first to reduce the overall risk.
You still can drive to Otaru and return car late by 1 day. Where you plan to return car ? Airport/Sapporo city ? Cause I know mostly will have some surcharge if you don't return to the same location.
Also, you may think about repack and store few luggages at airport when return car, they have a limit like 48-72 hours storage. So at your last day, I'm sure with additional luggage from shopping/souvenirs/snacks, you don't have to drag so many luggages from airbnb to train station. Additional cost involve here.
The butter sandwich, you can get the plain transparent plastic packing which is cheapest per piece for own consumption at Furano (which I know, I'm sure somewhere else also got, but not in Sapporo city). Those paper wrap nicely are for gifts but more expensive, price is fixed everywhere, remember get GST refund.
Same with Shiroi Koibito, use calculator to find cheapest per piece for 12/18/21/24/36/48 packaging
price fixed everywhere.
Some shops may put cheaper price, but that is without GST included. In the end, same same.

GST refund only for purchases 5,000 yen and aboveA) Chitose airport - Lake Toya - Asahikawa/Biei/Furano/Tomamu - Sapporo drop luggage - return car - take train to Otaru
