Pasting multi-line text as single item

Hi, Iā€™m struggling to paste multiline text in the single bullet. I basically want to paste this in a single bullet.

ā€œfiles.associationsā€: {
"*.txt": ā€œjsonā€
}

I tried entering spaces first and then entring the code but it failed.
then I tried pasting it first and then decorating it with code. which should by default removes the bullets and make it in a single bullet but it is not happening either.
Iā€™m using latest chrome browser on Win 7 as of now.
