Notes
Make sure you're using a 15.25 oz box of cake mix. It seems like Duncan Hines and Pillsbury tend to be this size, but Betty Crocker tends to be smaller. Be sure to check the measurement on the box before purchasing.
Waiting 10-15 minutes after mixing the dough before forming the balls will stiffen the dough and makes it a bit easier to form the dough balls. This isn't necessary and they will still bake correctly without this rest time, it just helps the balls hold their shape better.
For perfectly round cookies, as soon as the cookies come out of the oven use a round cookie cutter or the top of a drinking glass that's slightly larger than the baked cookies to scoot the fresh baked cookies around in a circle.
