It's not something I tend to do (especially as, because he has two aces, your raising hand is quite likely to have made something on that flop) and usually just lead and fold to a raise as you said, but against the right mark I guess it can work. If you're the sort liable to call this flop with a straight/flush draw but fold the same to a CR I guess that could be another feather in its cap. Not how I'd play it but I think you'll see AA played much worse.

Since the flop was seen HU, I might have made a small bet on my QQ as overpair, but not pot. As it plays, I view myself here as protecting my trips with the full pot bet. My current view, at least, is that full pot will mean a medium-strong hand like this one. Lower bets either mean a very weak hand (such as mere overpair on an relatively uncoordinated board in LP) or else an extremely strong one (such as top set with flush redraw).
My opponent obviously views my bet as simple CB and tries to check-raise me off of it.
