Heat a small skillet over medium/medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add in the two tablespoons of unsalted butter. The butter should instantly start to melt and turn golden.

Once butter is melted and has turned a deep golden color, turn off the heat and add in the maple syrup and vanilla, whisking constantly (it should bubble up). Once the bubbles have subsided a bit, whisk in the powdered sugar.
