Heat a pot over medium-low heat.

Add coconut milk, condensed milk, and granulated sugar to the pot.

Add butter to the mixture.

Sprinkle in cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Stir the mixture until everything is melted together.

Allow the mixture to simmer until it comes to a boil, stirring constantly to prevent burning.

Once boiling, add grated ginger to the mixture.

Continue stirring for about 10 minutes until the mixture thickens and reduces to a thick sauce.

Perform a test by dropping some mixture into cold water; it should form a soft ball when ready.

Remove from heat and let it sit for a few minutes before vigorously beating the mixture until smooth.

Spread the mixture onto a lightly greased pan, leveling it out as desired.

Cover the mixture with parchment paper to smooth it out while it's still hot.

Allow the fudge to cool completely before cutting into pieces.
