Hi! Can't figure out this step. Appears to be correct on sketch board when refreshed, but I am missing something.

<title>Lists and Links</title> </head> <body> <h1> Ingredients </h1> <p> Make sure to include all of the following ingredients. </p> <ul> <a><li><a href=“cakes.html“. > Cakes</a></li> <li> <a href=“pies.html“. > Pies </a></li> <li><a href="candy.html". > Candy </a> </li> </ul>

</li></body> </html>

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1> Ingredients </h1>
    <p> Make sure to include all of the following ingredients. </p>
    <ul>
    <a><li><a href=“cakes.html“. > Cakes</a></li>
    <li> <a href=“pies.html“. > Pies </a></li>
    <li><a href="candy.html". > Candy </a> </li>
    </ul>

  </li></body>
</html>

your answer is correct, you just have some non valid characters, in this case the double quotes “ in your href attribute, just change it to ", this code worked for me.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>
  <ul>
    <li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li>    
    <li><a href="pies.html">Pies</a></li>    
    <li><a href="candy.html">Candy</a></li>    
    </ul>
  </body>
