It's stupid, I know, but there are less step to do it even from microsoft.com
The trick is not to go to the SQL server page but goinf directly on the download Center. From microsoft.com you to Download->Download Center and then search for sql server 2014 express.
There you will find the one click download if you can guess what version you actually want.
Yeah, that does not improve the process that much.
