I'm going to say sauce. Thecratio of powdered sugar to butter might suggest frosting but with that much cream, it would thin it out considerably. It would end up like a powdered sugar glaze (like for cookies.)

Reminds me of a stabilized (with butter) whipped cream frosting. Some recipes for frosting use a whole egg, not just white or just yolk.

No clue. I even googled the ingredients list and couldn’t come up with an exact match. Sorry.
