This used to be possible on desktop with create application shortcuts, but this feature seems to be gone now :(

Still there:

Hamburger Menu -> More Tools -> Add to Desktop

This capability was removed from the OS X version of Chrome some time back.

Interesting. I saw it work as recently as a few weeks ago. Looking at the support article (here: https://support.google.com/chrome_webstore/answer/3060053?hl...) it looks like OS X is the only platform where it no longer works. How strange.
