Fresh off its popular "do a barrel roll" trick, Google’s back with a new Easter Egg, this one of the winter holiday variety.

Users who enter "let it snow" in the search field are greeted with a flurry of digital snowflakes on their screen, followed by frost that eventually takes over the entire page.

Have no fear, you can use the left button on your mouse much as you would a gloved hand to clear the frost or, for those looking for a less manually-intensive option, the search button turns into a defrost button.

Go ahead, have at it. If all your Christmas shopping has left you too exhausted to actually type in the words, we've got you covered. Just click here. You're welcome. Merry Christmas.
