Rhubarb Cupcakes with Raspberry Cream Cheese Frosting

For my birthday my brother's family gave me this cupcake pan and liners from Ikea.  The cupcakes are taller and more narrow than a normal cupcake.  I wanted to make a new recipe to try out the pan and I remembered I still had some rhubarb leftover.  So rhubarb cupcakes it was!  
I have to say these were really good!  The rhubarb kept the cake moist and tart and the raspberry frosting gave it some sweetness.  Once I added the raspberries the consistency of the frosting ended up being more like a thick yogurt than a traditional icing but the combination was great!
You can see how these are much taller.  It kind of reminded me of a Smurf house!!
