If, by 'website icons', you mean desktop shortcuts to websites, you don't need to go via any hamburgers, hot dogs or wrenches.
Simply go the relevant website and reduce the size of your browser window (so that you can see some of your desktop). Click on the small icon which appears immediately to the left of 'www' in your browser's address bar and drag it onto your desktop. Job done (although you might want to rename the icon, via right-clicking on it).
