The link to your site doesn't work, so I can't see what the problem is. Perhaps you have a problem with another modification. That code has worked with others and works on my default test site.
edit: I just found your forums here -
http://tastetestedrecipes.com/forum.php (no /forums in the path). You don't even have the block on the page. I see you have the widget in your cms, but no block. Are you sure you are looking at the correct code? Widgets and Blocks are not the same thing.
