Dynamic Date Measure

Hi. I need to create a card that would show me the month and year selected in the date slicer. This is what I have for now as my measure:

YTD Test =
Var mm = FORMAT(SELECTEDVALUE('DATE'[Month Number]),"mmmm")
Var yy = SELECTEDVALUE('DATE'[Year])


RETURN
mm&" "&yy
 
The thing is, the card does not update when a different date is selected. It stays at January 2022 

regardless of which month I choose. Can anyone tell me what's wrong?
