In large bowl, beat butter with brown sugar until fluffy; beat in espresso mixture and salt. Stir in flour to make smooth dough. Divide in half.
On waxed paper, roll each half of espresso dough into 9-inch (23 cm) log; flatten sides to form into long 2- x 1/2-inch (5 x 1 cm) rectangle. Place each on a vanilla rectangle and press together to make two 9- x 2- x 1-inch (23 x 5 x 2.5 cm) rectangles. Wrap each and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
