Problem with Extension tutorial

I'm working on the properties extension tutorial where you just set the element to the value of a custom text box. However, I'm getting hello world undefined when I try to set the text, as in my text box variable is undefined. Can you see what I'm missing?

define( [

  'jquery'

  ],

  function ( $ ) {

  'use strict';

  return {

  definition:

  {

  //set our properties

  type: "items"

  , component: "accordion"

  , items:

  {

  appearancePanel:

  {

  uses: "settings"

  , items:

  {

  //create a text box for a custom property

  MyStringProp:

  {

  ref: "myDynamicOutput"

  , type: "string"

  , label: "my first property"

  , defaultValue: "foo"

  }

  }

  }

  }

  }

  , paint: function ( $element, layout ) {

  console.log(layout);

  var id = layout.qInfo.qId + '_helloworld';

  var $helloWorld = $( '#' + id );

  var $txt = layout.myDynamicOutput;

  if ( !$helloWorld.length ) {

  console.log( 'No element found with the given Id, so create the element' );

  $helloWorld = $( document.createElement( 'div' ) );

  $helloWorld.attr( 'id', id );

  $helloWorld.html( 'Hello World' + layout.myDynamicOutput );

  $element.append( $helloWorld );

  } else {

  console.log( 'Found an element with the given Id, so just change it' );

  $helloWorld.html( 'Hello World' + layout.myDynamicOutput );

  }

  }

  };

  } );
