you cant

vmware essentials only supports 3 hosts with each 2 CPU so you get 6 CPU license

like the others say you will need to upgrade then to standard of enterprise depending what features you need in your environment

VMware vSphere Essentials and Essentials Plus

These editions are all-in-one packages for small office environments that include everything required for consolidating servers and for virtualization management.  This includes licensing for three physical vSphere hosts and vCenter Server for Essentials, the central management server. Each physical server may contain up to two physical processors with up to 6 cores per processor.


You have to upgrade the suitable version to support more host.
