After a cyclic permutation of the trace, the expression you need is

$$Y=\text{tr}\left\{\mathbf{A}^HE(\mathbf{C}^H \begin{bmatrix} \mathbf{0}_{M\times M} & \mathbf{0}_{M\times N} \\ \mathbf{0}_{N\times M} & \mathbf{I}_{N\times N} \end{bmatrix} \mathbf{C})\mathbf{A}\right\}=\text{tr}\left\{E(\mathbf{C}\mathbf{A}\mathbf{A}^H \mathbf{C}^H) \begin{bmatrix} \mathbf{0}_{M\times M} & \mathbf{0}_{M\times N} \\ \mathbf{0}_{N\times M} & \mathbf{I}_{N\times N} \end{bmatrix} \right\}$$

Let me abbreviate $\mathbf{H}=\mathbf{AA}^H$, $\mathbf{X}=\mathbf{C}\mathbf{A}\mathbf{A}^H \mathbf{C}^H$, and let me denote by $\mathbf{P}$ the projection matrix in square brackets, so $Y={\rm tr}\{E(\mathbf{X})\mathbf{P}\}$. The expectation value can be evaluated using the Toeplitz property $C_{ij}=c_{i-j}$. 

From your construction I gather that
$$E(c_i c^\ast_j)=\tfrac{1}{2}\sigma^2\delta'_{ij}$$
where $\delta'_{ij}=1$ if $i=j\in\{0,1,2,\ldots M-1\}$ $\text{modulo}\,(N+M)$, while $\delta'_{ij}=0$ otherwise.

Carrying out the average,
$$E(X_{ij})=\sum_{kl}E(C_{ik}H_{kl}C^\ast_{jl})=\sum_{kl}E(c_{i-k}H_{kl}c^\ast_{j-l})=\tfrac{1}{2}\sigma^2\sum_{kl}H_{kl}\delta'_{i-k,j-l}$$

The projector $\mathbf{P}$ identifies $j=i=M+1,M+2,\ldots M+N$, so we arrive at

$$Y={\rm tr}\{E\mathbf{(X)P}\}=\tfrac{1}{2}\sigma^2 \sum_{i=M+1}^{N+M}\sum_{k,l=1}^{N+M}H_{kl}\delta'_{i-k,i-l}=\tfrac{1}{2}\sigma^2 \sum_{k=1}^{N+M}H_{kk}N_k$$

with the definition $N_k=\sum_{i=M+1}^{N+M}\delta'_{i-k,i-k}$. This number is a bit tedious to evaluate [*], but I presume you can easily take it from here.

[*] If I have not made a mistake, I find:

$$N_k=
\begin{cases}
k-1& \text{if}\quad 1\leq k\leq M\\
M& \text{if}\quad M+1\leq k\leq N+1\\
N+M-k+1& \text{if}\quad N+2\leq k\leq M+N\\
0&\text{otherwise}
\end{cases}$$
