Gulp not compiling scss to correct folder - gulp

Question

when running gulp watch it appears that its watching as the file changes. However it appears that its writting the .css file to the same folder where I am making the changes. Here is my Gulp File. I want it to put the .min.css and the .css file inside root/www/css The folder where my scss is located in /root/scss I want to be able to edit it here but have it compile and put the .css and min.css inside /root/www/css It looks looks like thats what it should be doing with these items:
.pipe(gulp.dest('./www/css/'))
.pipe(minifyCss({
But its just creating a .css file only and its in the same folder the .scss is at.
var gulp = require('gulp');
var gutil = require('gulp-util');
var bower = require('bower');
var concat = require('gulp-concat');
var sass = require('gulp-sass');
var minifyCss = require('gulp-minify-css');
var rename = require('gulp-rename');
var sh = require('shelljs');
var paths = {
sass: ['./scss/**/*.scss']
};
gulp.task('default', ['sass']);
gulp.task('sass', function(done) {
gulp.src('./scss/ionic.app.scss')
.pipe(sass({
errLogToConsole: true
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('./www/css/'))
.pipe(minifyCss({
keepSpecialComments: 0
}))
.pipe(rename({ extname: '.min.css' }))
.pipe(gulp.dest('./www/css/'))
.on('end', done);
});
gulp.task('watch', function() {
gulp.watch(paths.sass, ['sass']);
});
gulp.task('install', ['git-check'], function() {
return bower.commands.install()
.on('log', function(data) {
gutil.log('bower', gutil.colors.cyan(data.id), data.message);
});
});
gulp.task('git-check', function(done) {
if (!sh.which('git')) {
console.log(
' ' + gutil.colors.red('Git is not installed.'),
'\n Git, the version control system, is required to download Ionic.',
'\n Download git here:', gutil.colors.cyan('http://git-scm.com/downloads') + '.',
'\n Once git is installed, run \'' + gutil.colors.cyan('gulp install') + '\' again.'
);
process.exit(1);
}
done();
});

Sometimes when I add the ./ to the destinations Gulp tries to make a new directory. Taking that off usually fixes it.
gulp.task('sass', function(done) {
gulp.src('./scss/ionic.app.scss')
.pipe(sass({
errLogToConsole: true
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('www/css/'))
.pipe(minifyCss({
keepSpecialComments: 0
}))
.pipe(rename({ extname: '.min.css' }))
.pipe(gulp.dest('www/css/'))
.on('end', done);
});
