Yes, you can absolutely make this on the stovetop rather than the microwave. I think the microwave is super simple and quick, but if you prefer to cook this on the stove, simply pop all the ingredients into a pan, and place it on medium-low on the stove. Stir regularly, and watch it all melt together. Pour it into a serving dish, and you're ready to go. It can also be reheated on the stove if you want.
