It doesn't necessarily have to be for a frosting.
My mom's a pastry chef and I was brought up with the 6 stove ranges taken by double-boilers and sauce pans, dozens of beaters working at the same time, freezers and the smell of semi-sweet chocolate all around the house at breakfast time instead of fresh toast!LOL
No wonder I'm a chocoholic!

Hay una diferencia en términos de cantidad entre "stir in" y "fold in" (ésta implica una cantidad mayor de mezcla, chocolate o lo q sea, q se mezcla con mucha suavidad.)

mix in / add the melted choclate
Unless there is a specific effect that the recipe wishes to achieve by the way in which the melted chocolate is added then there are a number of ways which this could be phrased;
mix in
add
pour
is this 'forma de hilo' a specific technique?

pour the melted...
pour the melted chocolate into the mixture as you are beating/whisking (or while you whisk, etc.)
I think the "hilo" bit need only refer to its fluidity, as the thinness of the "hilo" will be governed by how runny it is, and I don't think that is so important here

perhaps "pour the melted chocolate into... gradually", though I'm not sure it's necessary unless large quanitties are involved
forma de hilo is a technique in some recipes, like adding oil when making mayonnaise, as aceavila suggests, i think

: slowly/gradually/continuously, as you point out "the thinness of the "hilo" will be governed by how runny it is", that's the key issue in this case, IMHO.

dribble in
in search of a way of expressing that you shouldn´t chuck it all in at once... I´m sure we´d find something in mayonnaise recipes...

OK, I´ve been at the mayonnaise recipes:
"Add 1/2 cup oil in a very fine steady stream, beating constantly" says http://homecooking.about.com/od/saladrecipes/r/blcon64.htm , while "Whisk in the oil, pouring it slowly", says http://www.aftouch-cuisine.com/recipe/mayonnaise-201.htm
I´ve been chewing on the question (sorry, couldn´t resist), and wondering about "drizzle" - it conjures up cake covering pictures for me.
