Simply type Explorer at the Start Screen and launch File Explorer, navigate to Computer, then right click on your optical drive and select Burn to disk. The Burn a Disk dialogue box will also appear if you double click the drive while a blank CD or DVD is present. This is outlined here at Windows Support.

Edit: I forgot to mention this writeup from here at Tom's Hardware: How Do I Burn a CD or DVD in Windows 8?
