I want to replace every double CR by a single one, in one script pass.

CR-CR -> CR
CR-CR-CR-> CR

So, you actually want to replace every sequence of two or more CRs with a single one? Try this:

replace looking for "^c^c+" replacing with "^c" with grep

The "with grep" is probably the bit you were missing -- the standard find meta-symbol ^* just matches an arbitrary string, not a repeat of the previous character.
