  2. Step 2

    Combine cream and milk in a 2-quart souffle dish. Cover tightly with microwave plastic wrap. Cook at 100 percent power in a high-power microwave oven for 3 minutes. Prick plastic to release steam.

I'm just guessing but I would cook it to 235 on a candy thermometer. That's the temp I cook regular caramels, and the correct temp so they're neither too hard nor too soft.

Is there a way to bypass the microwave? What would be the stovetop equivalent?
