Default general strategy thoughts with AA in pot limit

Betting or trying to induce a bluff
Scenario : Heads up out of position with AA and the pot is about equal to your stack. The flop comes q q 5 offsuit. What do you do you do in this situation? How does it change depending on the skill level of your opponent? I do different things in this situation, however, I usually just betting the pot and hope. I think you are playing for your stack here so there could be some value in checking to induce a bluff. It seems obvious that you have aa here and therefore will play the hand through, but I have seen much stupider things than a bluff in this spot.
