Whats wrong with my dictionary and why isn't it right

it said to pretend a customer ordered apple pie ice I'm supposed to retrieve it and assign it to a constant named apple pie I thought that is what I did I keep seeing this bummer message

Bummer! Make sure you're retrieving a value from the dictionary rather than assigning a string directly

dictionary.swift 
// Enter your code below

var iceCream = [
      "CC": "Chocolate Chip",
      "AP": "Apple Pie",
      "PB": "Peanut Butter"
]

iceCream["RR"] = "Rocky Road"

let applePie = iceCrean["AP"]

Check your spelling

var iceCream = [
      "CC": "Chocolate Chip",
      "AP": "Apple Pie",
      "PB": "Peanut Butter"
]

iceCream["RR"] = "Rocky Road"

//You have n instead of m
let applePie = iceCrean["AP"]
