Make coconut cream filling: Combine the half-and-half, coconut milk, eggs, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave it for 4-6 minutes, whisking well after each minute. When the mixture is thick, add the extracts and untoasted coconut. Pour over the cooled brownies. Chill till firm, about 2 to 4 hours.

    To make the mousse, place chocolate chips in a medium microwave safe bowl.Add ⅓ cup of cream and microwave, stopping to stir at 30 second intervals, till melted and smooth. Cool to room temperature. Place cold water in a small dish and sprinkle gelatin over it to soften for 10 minutes. Heat it for 15-25 seconds in the microwave and whisk till gelatin is dissolved. Beat the remaining ⅔ cups whipping cream and powdered sugar adding the gelatin mixture and vanilla extract before stiff peaks are reached. Fold the cream into the chocolate mixture and pour over the coconut filling. Chill until set, about 6 hours or overnight.
