Default Playing rockets in cash games

About a month ago I went on a really bad run with AAs getting cracked every time I played them - probably about 4 times in a row with 3 max in the pot.

I decided to start making bigger and bigger raises pre-flop until at one stage I raised to $4 (10nl) and got one caller who flopped a flush. He had 4d 9d.

I admitted defeat at that point and have since decided to go all in preflop with AA whenever I have them. I know that this is admitting defeat but I've really been suffering from the win a small pot or lose a huge pot syndrome with them.

Comically so far with this strategy I've won twice but lost at least three times. Two of the callers have been K 10 and Q 4.

So what should I do with AAs? Because of my experiences with them in cash rooms I find them impossible to play (and indeed with QQ and KK) post flop. And I guess I must assume that getting calls when I go all in is what I what and variance should hopefully bring it back in my favour.
