How do I post a widget on blogspot?

Question

I've gone into the layout tab on blogspot. I've clicked on "add a gadget", but it doesn't support the text. I am given codes to put on my blogspot, but where do I put the code? I checked here for help before posting a question, but every answer seems to be to click on "add a gadget". That doesn't work unless I have a URL. I don't have one, I just have an HTML code.

Sign into your Blogger account.

Go to the control panel of the blog and click on the template tab.

Click on the Add Page Element link at the top of your sidebar (menu). This will bring up a Choose New Element page.

Locate the entry for HTML/Javascript and click on the Add To Blog button. This will bring up a new page allowing you to add some HTML or Javascript to your sidebar.

Type in whatever title you want to give the block that will contain the widget. You can also leave the title blank.

Paste the widget's code into the text box labeled content

Save changes.

By default, Blogger puts the new element at the top of the sidebar. If you hover the mouse over the new element, the pointer will change to four arrows pointing up, down, left and right.

You can add "Recent post widget' on your blog its really simple here is step by step insturctions like i have
