Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the granulated sugar until well combined.
Let the butter-sugar mixture cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs one at a time until fully incorporated. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a fudgy consistency.
Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Place the Symphony chocolate bars side by side on top of the batter, ensuring they form an even layer. You may need to break the bars slightly to fit the pan edges.
Spread the remaining brownie batter over the chocolate bars, ensuring they’re fully covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the brownie (avoiding the chocolate bar layer) comes out with only a few moist crumbs.
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang. Slice into 12 squares and serve.
