I have a C++ console application in Visual Studio. Is there a way I can view my cout/cerr output when I am running/debugging the application from Visual Studio.

Both cout and cerr (stdout and stderr) are go to the console by default... You should see the console window while debugging...

It should "pop" up when you step into the code; you might be touching a bit of the VS interface with the mouse so the app window receives no focus. Therefore, try minimizing VS to see if the app is indeed maximized "behind".

Just a thought.
