Or perhaps - reheat and paper towels. Or some combination.
Followed by acetone.

I'd use MEK after getting most of it off with the heat and razor blade
approach. MEK will dissolve the plastic and should have no effect on the
glass / ceramic top. I don't think acetone will do anything to most
plastics.

Also, let the surface cool again before using any type of solvent on the
remaining residue. If it's hot it can of course catch on fire, but even
if it doesn't it will evaporate too fast to be useful if it's hot.
